Wink Best Bang ?
Ok guys, helping a friend spend some money..

Whats the best bang for the $$ in a 25+ powerboat.

He likes the speed, mid or cuddy, carb or efi.

Year doesn't matter, as long as its NOT a project.

Looking for turn key.

His Price range $20-$35k

I have a very nice Checkmate that is right on the low end of his budget and is turn key. 75 mph + gps. I'm looking to move up very soon. PM me if youd like pictures and details.

I think my 28 Apache is the best bang for the buck and will fit that price range, but I'm biased. Its for sale here on OSO. Has 40 hours on new 502's.

Exactly what I was looking for when I picked up this 260 last Friday. (And in that price range).
