no offense but the low hour thing wouldnt make much difference to me...fact is it’s still 15 years old. It just means the owner didn’t use it much which has its pros and cons. I’d still be leary of the cmi headers. the 525’s will need top end service in the next 2-3 seasons. Those are all bargaining chips for a potential buyer.

certainly not downplaying the boat. Thing looks immaculate and well kept. It should sell fast. GLWTS

Just got an email back from the seller. The 02 Tiger has "around 500 hours" on it...so she's about if not already ready for rebuilds.

Since the inevitable comparison to a Top Gun has come up, may as well compare to this fresh listing.....

One owner 2003 / 525's with Whipples and X-power drives. 300 hours. Not sure it's as nice as the subject boat but not too shabby. 149k.

Are we talking a listing price or what the customer wants out of the boat. I stated a listing price.

As stated above, the only knock on this boat is the early 525's which have suspect headers and will need head gaskets, springs, and rockers to make them reliable. The drives are what they are so any bigger Bravo boat has to deal with rebuilds.

I'm one of the few where the 35 has more appeal to me than a 38 due to my boating circumstances.

I did get a chuckle out of the PBC price.

I wasn't referring to your post, which is pretty clearly about 35 Top Guns but there are a few posts further on which draw comparisons to 38' Guns and asking prices Vs which boat is preferable.
No bad intent here, just trying to keep up.....
