I am looking for a 303, 311 and or a 357 for under 20k with bravo drives and trailer. I have found a large hand full with trs drives but I am trying to stay away from that.
Last week my friend picked up a 311 Sr1 for 17,500 it was everything I wanted so I know they are out there.

A decent 303 for under 20k is going to be tough to find. 357's that are decent can be had sub 30 with some looking and 311's that again are halfway decent can be found in the 20's and maybe a little below. This I think is a nice looking 311 that just needs a trailer that might be close to what you are looking for.

Just depends how clean and close to perfect you want or if you are willing to have a couple projects

This is probably one of the best 311's for the money, was my buddys boat till 5 years ago, he had a fortune in it, tons of updating, nice trailer, and the new owner painted it and it looks amazing...

this boat will runa true 75 on gps all day long and not many do that, hydraulic steering also, not many with it...

I bet this guy would take 17-20 for it and thats a deal considering my buddyn had over 90,000 in it when he had spent over the years of updating and purchasing it...

This doesn't look half bad little higher than you are looking but only year newer you would find is a '92

The one in warren is over priced for a bad engine, saw that around, bravo boat yes...

Personally I would much rather have a TRS 311, they ride a ton better, unless your in a flat lake then bravo is fine, if you get in any kind of buigger water stick with TRS

I swear you will not find a 311 with more power and updating then the one I posted... trust me... my buddy was very particular and had or may still have full documentation on it, he did all his own work and when them engiens had the 525 cams and edelbrock alum heads it went 80, thats insane for a 311...

you buy one that needs work your gonna have a ton wrapped up in it... trust me... it snowballs out of control..

FF I agree with you I wouldn't shy away from TRS boats especially if they are clean. That 311 you posted looks like a great deal if it all is up to par.

If this is 25k Might be able to get him down close to 20. Looks like a clean 303

it was a great boat when he sold it, all it needed was poaint, that was done by the owner now with a body shop, look at older ebay listings, better pics, boat look NEW

303's are SMALL.....

you can sink yourself real fast in a boat that just needs TLC, almost EVERY older boat will need stringer/transom/bulkhead work, just figure on it, I don't care what anyone tells you unless it's been done at least once, especially a Baja Formula stinger scarab they didn't seal them well when drilling holes and that invited water in...

engines will cost a ton unless you build em yourself and know what your doing... best survey is knowledge and a small hammer... and someone who can check out engines/drives

I made the mistake years ago withn a TLC boat, I ditched it after spending too much this year, bought a dry 35 Cigarette and am happier then ever that I don't need stringers/paint and such...

research and listen to what guys tell you, luckily I am my own mecahnic painter and such and it still costs a ton.. I could not imagine paying someone to do all my work..
