Default 35 with hp500's

There is a 1997 35 single step with hp500's for sale locally, it is already winterized, just curious what it should run.

You need to tell us more information about the boat. Condition, hours, outdrives, trailer, etc. You can't give to much information. I purchased a boat late this summer exactly like what you described. I paid 60 with trailer. The boat is in perfect condition inside and out. Friends can't believe its a 97. Has less than 200 hours on it. Fresh water boat. I got all of the original Fountain paperwork and all maintence records from day 1. I feel like I got a really good deal. Some might say I paid to much. You would have to see this boat to believe it. Hope you find what you are looking for.

Sorry if i confused you, i meant by "what it should run" as in speed, not price.

I have checked it out a few times, the deal locally is quite a bit less, feel free to PM me your best price though.
