What would be a good offer? Any tips on what to look for and does anyone know a good surveyors in the area.


Thanks

That looks like a great deal to me. She looks like she's been well cared for.

What Cuda said. Looks like a nice ride and in very good shape. Have a survery done. Looks like a lot of boat for the money, especially with a new trailer under her. Good luck.

its advertized in the classified for 32950.00. a buddy of mine had one with kaamas on it and wishes he would have kept it. lots of room everywhere, but heavy.we got his up to mid eightys but with large power. good luck it appears to be in good shape. boatman 302

Looks Nice...I have an 88 with 420s. She burns alot of fuel but its a great boat! With tons of room for a go fast. Takes alot...and I mean alot of $$$ to make them go fast! They are very heavy, but the ride is superb. Expect about 60-65 MPH if she aint tired. Get a servey, looks like a pretty nice deal if you can get the trailer with it.

Thanks all for the replys fo far. I plan on getting a servey done. Im not to worried about being the fastest guy on the water but would rather have the room as I have to little ones who love to go boating with me.

As I understand the ad the trailer is seprate. I saw the add on OSS right after I posted the price went down mabey a good theing

If a good ride and room for passengers is what you want, this IS the boat for you. They don't ride any better than a big heavy Formula.

I based my thought that it has been well cared for by looking how clean the bilge is. That's what I always check. If they kept it clean, odds are they also did the required maintenance on it. Keep us informed if you pick it up.

You can pm Brent Ford (Bford1). He had one for sale at a reeeeal good price with twin 540 HP down in texas!

I had one with Kamma's great boat, lots of fun. Hard to find a better boat for the money as long as they have a clean bill of health Good Luck and Welcome to OSO.
