Saw this one yesterday on the local Charlotte Craig's list. Listing is very vague and only one pic, so I don't know if it's a good prospect or not. I feel like I've seen this boat out on the lake, but know nothing about it otherwise.

Thanks I will look into this. They don't seem like they want to sell it with limited information.

There is/was a1995 303 in North Idaho. It is in an estate. Big blocks. Around 200 hours. Silent thunder exhaust. Eagle triple axle trailer. It looks like it has been inside most of it's life. I have pictures that a dealer sent me. In the pictures, the owner even jacked up the trailer to keep the weight off the axles. A friend that helped me find my 292 wondered if I knew of anyone looking for a boat like this. Send me a message with an email address if you are interested. A dealer in Portland has provided me with the info. They are asking 40K or best offer. It is beautiful, but is definitely 90's colors.

Thanks for the post on the 303. But, $40k is a bit optimistic for a 1995, garage queen or not. Old hull design and probably a bunch of seals that are all dried out from lack of use. A decent 312 should run between $30-40k.

I wouldnt shut it out, would i was in the same position a few years back, wanted a 312 but that 30/35ish number was getting me high hours or 310hp's neither i wanted, so i bought the nicest boat i could with what i could afford, even if it was slightly overpaying, 303 is a quick boat all thing considered, mine has 502's and have seen 80 a time or two, always 74mph ;o)

Don't get me wrong, I wasn't bashing the 303, just the pricing of it. I'm actually considering a 303 myself as we speak!

I know this boat well. Cant remember the guys name, but he has a trucking company in West Va. Boat is dry stored at the old Skippers Marina. Has twin 496 Mag HO. Cherry condition. He hasnt had it long.
Ran with him during our last fun run. Good guy, i just think he has time to come down often enough. Boat will run out 75 mph plus I think it has a trailer too

Agreed, just passing on the information. I got the impression from the guy who told me about it, that 40K is a starting point, but being in an estate sale, offers would be welcomed, and cash talks. It is just a very clean, low hour, freshwater boat located in Coeur d'lene Idaho. Talk to Don Roush at Pacific Powerboats in Portland, OR if you want further information.
