It was traded in to Shogrens late last summer, then sold to I believe someone in Mich last fall. Was that boat from the Rochester NY area in 2001??? I thought I remembered it in a marina building when I was looking to buy my 33 back in 01.
Just curious.

I think 85 or 86. But yes, it's kinda old. I was in the boat when it was up at Shogrens, and it was pretty clean for the year. Totally redone cockpit, 572 fuel injected engines, SSM III's, it was a great deal for the money they were asking. Someone got a nice 12M Fountain.

I was told '88 by the guy behind wheel the day the pics where took. I dont remember him saying it had 572's. When they were on the lake it was running real rough.

They are tall deck blocks. The seller told the dealer they are 572's. Who really knows until the current owner takes them apart.
