What do you guys think?? Is a real nice boat for the money. 27 Fountain may need to upgrade.

Schwaeeet boat! I have been drooling over it since the other post about this boat a few hours ago. I just wish it had beefy B1 drives though.

BTW Will, how are things down there? Things are still crazy here. You missed a great pay at the OSO Gathering, but you boat made the poster. We need to catch up soon. I saw you are going to Miami; I am going to be in Ft. Lauderdale 18-23 Feb., catching the last day of the Miami Boat Show.

DAMN ! WHATS UP WITH THAT? How fast do you think it should run with that power?

looks to me like it has SSM3 drives. Damn good deal although I'd want the engines rebuilt with those hrs.
I'd bet low 90s with fresh 800s

Brian, DJD is right. Those are speedmaster drives. Plenty strong.

Brian,

Glad my boat made it even though I couldn't. My new job is going good, I was in Atlanta during the OSO gathering in DC. I am really thinking about going back to school and going after a MBA. It would suck to be poor again for 2 years but I think it will help me in the long run. I am going to be in Miami feb 14 leaving 17th. I will be at the OSO party there. :D

Anybody know anything about National Liquidators company? Are they reputable? Has anyone purchased from them?

Just curious. It seems like a good way to get a decent deal. Too good to be true?

I bidded on a Fountain couple of years ago, this was before they advertised the Bid price. I think the guy I dealed with was Jim?? They were very straight forward about condition and all history they knew of. they told me the boat I bid on had sunk for about 8 hrs, but ran and drove fine. You can bid conditionl on a test run or visual inspection also. :) Most are Bank repo.

Looks great. I would definately want to freshen those motors up though. Looks like the owner got his/her fun out of it before the bank stepped in. :eek:

Sean :)

Talked to trevor about the boat, port engine
oil pump bad being replaced ,props need to be reworked 4blade mirage ,has extra 3 blade props in good condition. Hull is in good shape interior good also boat was a repo. I doubt very seriously the boat can be bought for mim bid. The bank probably will hold out
for more because they know what its worth.Hope this helps.

I called and spoke to them. Just out of curiosity I asked them about a 33 Scarab (1999) that was listed on the board. The boat had only 16 hours, 502's. The minimum bid was $75K, and the boat ended up selling for $92K. Still, a really good deal in my opinion. I'm tempted to look at the Cig, but the hours on the boat kind of scare me. The Scarab only had 16, that's why I was interested in that boat. Anybody have any more comments about this Cig? Is 300+ hours high for a 1996?

I bought a boat from them 2 years ago. The salesman I used was Ron Brozic. They are very straight foreward and told me everything they knew about the boat. I've bid on a few others that I never got.

I've stopped in a few times when I was down there to see what they had. I was treated like I was buying a 150k boat when the one I was looking at the last time was only 5k. It was a 17' jet boat I was hopeing to make a little money one.

I would deal with them again.

That is a nice boat! It would be worth $150K if it looks as good in person. Have both motors gone through before you even splash it have the drives deusched and this thing is ready to rock. :D
