It was behind Mark & Eileens house in Key largo on the lift. I'm not sure it was really 'for sale" in the usual way. It is clean for sure. Also, the old price was with no trailer.

Unless you can find some sort of rediculously cheap deal on a repo center console or something I would agree with just hauling the Skater. Miles of wide open water with no speed limit will have you wishing you were in your boat! Let's get a deal together to haul BOTH boats down there and save some money on the freight!
I already have a line on a storage facility from November through March.
Now, if you are looking for something to use and abuse while you are there to learn the waters, that's different, maybe we could partner on a boat like that.

Hey Ortho, Taking a guess here.........If it's equipped with Mercury Racing power and drives (insert high end powerboat here) it will have better resale value. Power and drives are a big $ part of the game. There are members on the board that change powerboats quite often.....they would know best, of course.

except that one.....salt water submarined then stripped/repo'd and patched back together. When it was 4 years old it had 400 hour 525's, brand new XRs (theft replacement), cold a/c and genny with a flat screen on the wall and it sold for 150K.....The best thing about this boat now is the power!

Kinda like a red 36 skater at Texas repos.
