From the sounds of it you want the equivalent of a "Certified pre-owned BMW" or like type car but in a boat.......that doesn't exist. Sorry to break that too you.

That would be nice... But we all know that's never going to happen...... But I'm sure they said that about used cars at one time too.

Went to Grand Sport Center in Lake of the Hills to look at several candidates. Although I would normally only deal with a private seller, there reputation and knowledge of the Sonic we purchased sealed the deal. Was very happy with the whole transaction. KS
