The problem with that boat is the seller. I tried to buy that boat numerous times and obviously I did not get it. He wants top dollar and is not willing to negotiate. This may have changed but I know of other people that have had the same reaction from them.

Nicely put.

I tried to do a deal with him. Trade my low hour 31ss in and make up the diffrence with the loan. He's real arrogant , (your boat is not as good as his because a dealer) and his boat ONLY had 150HRS. that was over two years ago. It worked out to about 50 HRS. a year. Sounded like a lot of hours to me for a dealer only never registered boat. Neadless to say my 31ss is now in great hands and loved by it's new owner. I have the 45ss I wanted and this guy is still trying to sell that boat three years later.

Even with additional fuel and maintenance, it is fun to have a "threesome". The attention at the dock that third motor gets when you fire-it-up makes it all worthwhile.

He's been trying to sell it for 6 years! I wondered why no one bought it, I love the boat. Now I know.

I have done business with Hutchinsons boatworks for many years. My dad first did business with them and then I started in the late 80's. Top Notch people to do business with. Very fair pricing ,excellent service 'and people of their word If they say they will they do it.
Mark is a top notch person and has a excellent business.
That boat I mentioned is one sweet ride. A 400,000 dollar boat for less then half. obviously he is trying to sell this one.
I wish I had the money cause it would be mine no questions.

Mark showed me his 45 before I bought my 42. It is a very, very nice boat. I just wasn't looking for a trip set up.

My 42 is still available at $60M less ............in the classifieds.
