I think it is a 97 but im not sure. Ive been on the boat many times. It is very solid and runs great. Its got 525sc's and beefed up imco drives. I texted him earlier but have not heard back.

Really not the biggest fan of 496's(I think you may have posted a couple of problems with yours too?)but these boats are pretty hard to find what kind of $$ are you looking for?

I haven't given it much thought and when approached Shogren marine on a trade in they offered me ~$60k which as you can imagine didn't sit well as I probably still owe closer to ~$90k (on a ~$150k original price). The market sucks with the flood of repos and those still making payments are left upside down as a result.
I don't have many pictures on my work comp, but thought I would post up what I had here in case you were serious.

Yup, lost a motor a year ago with 150 hours on it. Cost my $7,500.00 and I did the pull and reinstall, but only trust a handful of peeps to touch the hardware.

yeah, I would have a hard time replacing it. Would love a pair of blue motors in the back (had I lost that motor at the end of the season instead of the beginning it would have been a different story), but it is still an awesome lake boat even with the 496HOs. I have yet to find another 31' cat that has the usable cabin I have.
