Definitely a nice boat.

I hope to check this one out this weekend Tom, sounds promising from the conversation with the owner. He’s on the higher end with price but everything is always negotiable.

I love the lines of my 292, but it's clearly been built for going fast and has zero storage, which would weigh you down!

We can usually be found near Essex, MD. How far up the choptank can you go? Looks like a fun trip.
interesting, I’d like to see some pictures of it! 4104908172.

I live in Denton, the furtherest you can go up the Choptank before scrubbing bottom. It’s definitely a fun river to boat on and many beach/bar options in the area from Cambridge up to Secretary. Look forward to speaking with you some more!

Aside from the billboard size graphics, I love this boat. I will need to investigate further. Great power plant too. I would have to store offsite of my house to make it work but definitely super clean. Thanks for the lead! It’s getting harder to find these birds, wish I could buy my old one back. Haha!

That's a big boat! The 357 is a monster!

I know it's a newer but I've seen it in person last summer. Really nice boat.

I have been really tempted to go pick this one up. It's only an hour or 2 from the house. If you are interested I could go check it out for you and get you any particulars you need. I've talked to the guy in length a few times. Seems like an honest guy but then again we never know until we put hands on it.

I don’t believe I’m ready to ditch the classic lines for a Fastech.
If you have any interest in a really nice 1990 311 send me a PM. It is one of my old boats that has been kept indoors since it was new. Red and white, 365s with some work. Nice eagle trailer. It would be really hard to find a nicer SR1 anywhere. Thank you
