I might ad I had a Bravo 1 xz drive and every year I changed the oil it looked real nice. The drive held up great. Just went easy on it. I had the boat 4 years and the guy before me had it for a few years too. I paid 28 grand for mine and sold it for 17 4 years later. Boats are cheap enough these day's I got my new one cheap

Well? Did you go look at it? Keep us posted good luck

No I was going to go today but it is 4 hrs away from me and basically I was just too afraid of the boat. Especially if it's been in saltwater, and a blown 540 with duel carbs just worried me too much. Now there is another one on eBay with a na 540 and I think I'm gonna go look at it this week. Plus it's only 35 miles from me. You guys can check it out and tell me what you think. The guy has it listed as a 28 foot but it's a 27. Thanks everyone.
