I must admit, I got real excited when I saw this ad with the buy it now price, but check out the hours and usage! Did not even think that was possible

Yup, sure looks like Crazy Greg's. He liked his Sonics. That was probably his last one before he passed away.

Only 200 hours at WOT. I would love to know the repair history of those motors. If he is only getting 60 out of her, it is either propped wrong or motors are weak. Cant imagine why, lol.

I wonder what the reserve is. That could be a nice boat if bought right. Rebuild motors and drives and fix up the interior. I like the paint, but the green in the cabin sucks.

4bus-rumor had it that you were working a deal on a boat, I didn't recognize it, not sure if it was local. Did it work out? That wierd snap on guy with the slow boat showed me a pic.

Ya, that is the rumor huge paperwork nightmare on his end, when you buy a boat, don't transfer the info into your name, and its 4 years later it complicates things. Hoping it works out, but searching for a back up in the mean time.

Looks like rust to me, 2400 hrs without changing the prestone will do that too.....I have seen it in cars.
