In addition to what Scott said, the beam is 9'3", which may suck if you trailer a lot (need a wide load banner). stability in the water is great!

so if said boat was dropped to $45k including the trailer, would it be worth it for me to go from washington state to illinois and back to get it?
440 hours on it.
thanks guys, cause i'm dead serious about making a road trip

It Appears To Be A Good Clean Boat.... But My Opinion Would Be To Try For The Stepped Hull Newer Year Like Year 2000+. May Be A Little More Money But Your Getting More Modern Styling, better steering sytem, etc And Blue Motors 500efi's. My .02 Cents. Ted

Boy, she's definitely clean for a '97! Interior is in great shape. I love a stepped hull, but if you don't care about getting the most max kill performance speeds and just want a great cruising boat that will get ya in the 70's for a nice price, then I'd say head East bound and Down!

I want it. But have been over ruled by the queen of the house. We are going to look at a maxum scr today. My only hope is it's hiding something and she ends up not liking it. Crossing my fingers. Hahahahahhaha
