Looks like a good deal ,,,but sound the hull for structural damage,,,not that it is likeley on a 1996 but just to make shure that there is no rot or delamination.

Other then thatlooks great for the price.

That looks like a great deal. Would be a good idea to do a leak down on the motors. Also does this have hydraulic steering?

The boat has the same paint job as Rock Steady's old boat that went overseas. His was a 38' though, and he loved it!

Great riding boats !!!! Real easy to drive because there is no surprizes . Just change the valve springs and GO . As far as the price goes , I think that is cheap . But I might be a little bias . Good luck with your new toy !!!!!!!!! Jeff

Its up for 35K. I know alot of things play into the value of the boat, just looking for a guesstimate value.

It seems like a good deal, but I am sure you guys know much more than I do.

BTW, I am Scott. I have been browsing these boards for a long time, not too long ago I finally made an account, and now I am posting for the first time. I have learned many things from you guys, and hope to learn more in the future.

This will be my first "serious" power boat.

Thanks in advance!

That sounds like a pretty darn good deal to me. If the engines are good (or good enough for you to fix up) and it surveys right. Is that local, as I see you're in Detroit too?

I'm also looking for a 28-32 size boat (see my thread asking about AT/Pantera 28's and Bullets). Good luck.
