If it's the one in the ad, the last contact I had with him said he had it sold. If you happen to know the new owner or if the old still had it then any current information would be greatfully accepted. My email is [email protected]

You need to seriously look at Warlock 31sxt's. Nice cabin and they run well. Mine has 525sc's (490hp at prop) and as you can see runs 100mph. Not currently for sale!

Wow.... tough question cuz its difficult to find a cat in that price range....35K and under your probably looking at a single engine 25/27 Cat.w/o power.. good luck finding that.... as far as 30/32 foot range...ive nvr seen anything in that price range with twin engine power.....just be careful, bcuz most importantly is to find something not abused and thats well maintained,, which is probably gonna get you in the 55 to 85K range...

good luck... keep looking!!!

Love the cabin. Never thought of Warlocks. Are they a center pod boat? Was hoping to stay with a true tunnel but will expand my options now.

I would stick with a 31 awesome/american offshore, I had 1 for 3 years & loved it, great in the rough, ran real stable over 100, & had a useable cabin that we overnighted on quite a few times. my .02

Ahhhhhh. Forgot that you nearly had a Cat when the deal with LDD went bad. (not at all connected to the LDD deal)Best advice that I can pass along is to get a survey by a true professional. No matter what price the boat is listed for.
