HaHa....but we weren’t towing anything!
Only one word to describe the boat we looked at, disappointing. The interior had a layer of something on it which gave it a brown/ yellow tinge to it. We tried cleaning a spot, but it was imbedded in the grain. No way was it coming off all the way. The deck looked like there had been a stripper with 10" pumps on it doing a dance. Scratches everywhere, and in need of a GOOD wet sand and buff to MAYBE get it back to acceptable.
Really a shame. I'm sure it USED to be a great looking boat. As a comparison to my boat, not even close. Rip's boat would look like it just came off the assemblyline at Formula compared to this one.

there are very few low hour for age boats, or demo's most certainly that get the kind of care a SERIOUS BOATER or OWNER gives. Demos are usually the biggest diappointment. Often the low hour ones are only out for "special occasions" read: parties and or a crowd, many times of non-boaters on board...and we all know how careful they are of the boats finish.
tanks...
True and accurate statement Rippem..........Those Demo's are truly brutalized. I agree with you 100%..
