All depends....I have seen a few boats locally so cheap and not in bad shape at all, every boat has it's issues, you never know what will happen every time out, like I said my buddy just boght a turn key 357 with a dry hull for 18,000....they are out there...

That boat caught my eye as well - I never dreamed I'd see a 357 that looked this nice (even with the issues mentioned above) for under 30-40k unless there were some game-stopping issues.

What do you think for speeds with the twin 420s?

It's a beautiful boat... I've been trying to add up some "worst case" costs (going over engines, etc.) to keep myself from inquiring on the details tonight :)

I say about 63-65 max gps with TRS

It says it has spare TRS's, they are usually pretty durable as long as cases are nice, again he said spares...

65 with the wind blowing in the back going down a big wave...

Exactly. There is a lot of very average stuff surfacing that looks OK in pictures that people are complaining that they cant believe are not selling, but are not as great as they seem. Nice boats priced aggressively are selling. But the only ones priced that way are from people that are not up side down in debt on their boat!:drink:

Hmmm -- inquired yesterday asking for photos including one of the damaged area referred to in this thread, but haven't gotten a response yet at all. If it's a member here selling it, I hope I didn't offend them with my comments in this thread -- was mostly trying to talk myself out of getting in over my head.
