Good looking boat and the price is not that bad either.

Yeah, it seems cheap compareds to others I have seen. Have to call on the hours and other info .

Is this the common engine package with this hull? What kind of speeds and handling for Lake Michigan?

How is the cabin for 2 people to overnight?

Guess I am looking for some Pros/Cons of this hull. I have not looked at Donzis but this one looked clean.

I think that was the boat I saw on the shoulder of highway 41 in wisconsin saturday mourning. The boat was being towed by a land rover.

well, fwiw, if you ever look at another one, here's my too sense: Love the way it drives and handles turns (never spun mine out or cavitated), common engine set up with the twin 350's (can expect a solid 70-72 top end on gps), very fuel efficient (92 miles on 33 gallons (87 octane) with varying speeds), and my wife and I have spent a number of nights on her out at Put In Bay (wish it had a separate head), fairly comfortable for a 28'er. She handled 4'-6' reasonably well, 2'-3' not a problem.

U welcome. Others have said, and I may agree to an extent, that the cabin is not the flashiest you will find in the 28' range. It suits us just fine, I'm 6'4" and wife is 5'4.5" and we're comfortable and not cramped or chlosterphobic. Definitely Love the twins!!! She's got a big boat feel without havin to tow a big boat. For 50k you should be able to find a good deal out there. I'd sell you ours but we're still to busy enjoyin her.......look me up in 5 years:drink:

Back in June I was in Plover, WI, to see a distributor of mine and took a quick trip over to Lake Winnebago to check it out. There was a dealer there on the south end of the lake (I think) with a white/red stripes and Checkerboard Graphics Scorpion ZX in the showroom. Not sure how much they want, but that boat new was good for 80-84mph. Might be worth a look if you havent already seen her (noticed you're in WI). Good luck in your search,

The checkered graphic boat is at sweetwater marina in oshkosh wisconsin.
