Here's one that popped up. High on the price but could be a nice boat being fresh water.

i tried to buy that boat about 3 years ago. it needs interior all done, needs touch up on exterior, needs a lot of updates.
the guy told me $26,000 i told him to call me when reality hit and he would take $10,000
the boat is in fair condition from what i could see. didnt poke around it all that much once he told me the price

fasted I've seen is 57mph GPS with 5 people, 1 dog, 3/4 fuel, 3 ft seas at 5400 RPM. i still have yet to run it alone light on fuel on a nice day. This is also the first prop ive tried, 21 Mirage Plus. I want to try a 20 Raker, and a 19 Mirage. The 21 i feel is a little too large as it is slow out of the hole. 70 is probably achievable with the right setup.

ol 40, you could get the boat and use it, but if you want it to be nice then it needs work. i want a single big block rum runner bad, and i wouldnt pay over 10k for it.
six, nice, sounds good. i bet it handles real well also with the light weight motor on it. looks nice as well.

Id have to see it but 10K is low, Its fresh water boat, interior is only 5 K at the most and it would be all new.
Unless there is $5000 or more in hull damage and/or the trailer is a turd assuming there is one, I would say its worth $15K and $10K is a steal. That black and orange boat was a steal at its price and I think it was the color that hurt it.
I sold my rum runner for $23K, but it was in really good shape compared to almost every other 26 Ive seen. It never spent one night in the water that I know of in its life. The engines were built and had CLES too.
