Besides 1ft, is there any difference between the 30 & 31 & 32?
Are the hulls the same?
How old is your 30?
Do you have any pics?
I'm trying to contact to get more pics of this 31.
You think that price is right/hi/low?
The blue hardware on the stern is a bit funky, but looks clean.

30-32 is a great boat! Put the bubble deck on around 1990. I don't think lengths changed that much over the years. Put 550-600's in it and it should be good for close to 90 and great on rough water. You will not be disappointed!

Looks like the harware has been kept up. Nice boat. Seems about $10K cheap, but it is off-season. My guess is she'll feel pretty slow though and you'll be itching for bigger motors on your second outing.

Wouldn't dry exhaust require onboard cooling? That would be nice.
Not sure what those things are sticking out the exhaust? Maybe part of a captain's call type exhuast control? Anyone?
