Good luck with the boat Craig.

so pier 57 didn't bother to run the engine vins and figure out what engines the boat actually has on it, then advertized it as having a different type of engine than what's really on it??? wtf

Yes, we ran the numbers on the motors and they did come up 250 EFI's. The Opti thing was a listing error.

Posts like that are the reason why people working in the boating industry don't post on this website anymore. It was a great deal. I am happy and pier57 is happy. That's all that matters.
