Man, at 35K I would think a 29 would move quick. I wanted one of these boats badly about a year ago. But now with the gas prices Ive reconsidered doing anything with boats. Its bad enough filling up my SUV.
Scarabrun I was looking at your SCS and emailed you a couple times. Im thinking if I buy anything right now It might be something in that price range and fuel economy. At 20K it looks like a deal. Only problem is that its in Florida and Im in So Cal. Is 20K your bottom dollar?

The market has taken a huge hit. I sold my '93 Fittipaldi 31' last year for $32.5k and that seemed like a fire sale ( I was hoping for $40k-42k). Now I don't know if it would even sell with all these much cleaner boats for sale at such low prices. It is not a good time to sell a boat but a great time to buy.Mike

If I have to "give" it away to sell it; I'll just keep it. I guess thats the difference between wanting to sell and "Having" to sell.
Unless I find something I really want more.. than I'll give it away. LOL

I really liked your old 31, I called you on it and you had sent me some pics. I ended up with a 91 31 excel. I still wish I would have bought your Fittipaldi, the MPI's were great upgrade!
