Congratulations on an awesome ride!

I have no interest in any way here regarding that 24. I saw the original ad for it and thought it was represented properly. I posted some comments regarding the problems on the other site and was ripped a new one so I just backed off.

Two things. The boat was presented as a race/pleasure hull potentially been raced and is a 1989. That's a 25 year old boat.

The whole ordeal over the 1700 hours on the engines. I don't think too many Mercury V-6 engines could get 1700 hours on them without having been rebuilt. If they were rebuilt or replaced long blocks chances are it's running the same electrics. Not sure which boxes were on the engines but you can't reset total hours on them only the various RPM hours. No mention has been given about the various RPM hours.

I don't think the seller of any boat is supposed to be giving a warranty after six months, or better, later.

Like I said I have no interest either way just observations.

If it means anything Lightspeed was very straight up and helpful about the 28 he has posted that belongs to his son. Unfortunatly you cant please everyone all the time, especially in the boat sales world. My only suggestion would be to give him a call to chat about it and go see it for yourself.

Thanks for all the nice comments on my boat, im looking forward to running it.

Ain't it great!

Buy your dream boat and then get ready to spend lots of money to make it the way you want it!

Haha the joys of boating!! There's nothing like being out in the water and having a good time that's for sure.

Just the dash for the skater, the paint and interior is for a new 33 Renegade Center console I'm having built!!

Hey Baja I also dont want to get into a pissing match i got screwed on that motor deal,, my DDt got flooded from sandy no doubt about that,, Franzen Marine screwed me on that deal never again if you saw the motors and condition and compression u would have thought they were low hrs like i was told not only from the owner but his mechanic also They had the factory seals on the heads and block so u would have seen if they were ever apart and when i put them on they ran great 92mph with 5 people in the boat when tested with the buyer ,,I would have never bought them if i knew they had those hrs on them ,,call me a liar what ever but i know what went down and tell it like it is ,,Whats done is done sorry to say ,,45+ years doing this and this never a problem all the stuff i sell is top notch and any one that knows me will say the same,,,1 bad deal guess u cant please everyone and i go above and beyond to make everyone happy ,,this sucks for me ,,,,,,,have a good one
