311 Advise
#31
So I went and looked at the boat that was close to me today. It's not anything that I want to get into. It's not horrible but more of a project than I want. The guy that owns it is in his 60's and it's a second boat for him. He put some money into the stringers that's for sure and they did a nice job. The rest of the boat needs tlc and the painted bottom is just a bad deal. When he painted it they barrier coated it which is good for th bottom but they took it into the paint towards the transom so it would be a real ***** to fix.
The good thing is, getting on a 311 and going through it made me realize that I really do like them and it is a great boat. On the hunt still!

BigDog Thanks for the Ad's. I talked to the guy on the one with the graphics on the side. He is supposed to be getting me more pictures. Those other two look nice also. The one in Canada looks nice but i'm not sure what all is involved with bringing a boat back from Canada? Anyone have any experience on that?
FF this is the same boat. It needs a lot for what he is asking for it.

This boat is Perfect Storms old boat, he maintained it brilliantly I mean this thing was mint and my dream boat i still love it, not sure how it has been taken care of since it left buffalo, but it could still be very nice, don't remember exactly but seems he put about a 100 hours on it maybe 150, not sure about the 420's with those hours no personal experience, my money says that boat is still very nice that guy paid a premium for it and those kinda guys usually take care of there stuff
