A bit over priced. But i guess its because of the price of the motor.

Do you think? Considering his investment in new transom and engine, he's still losing -- I don't blame him for that price tag. BUT, the rest of the boat had better be real nice.

Recent power, dual alum. trailer, hyd, steering, electronics and rebuilt transom (if done correctly)...I think it's a decent deal if it checks out. ???

No this boat has been on the mkt. for a long time. I was up in Deland, fl. and ck the boat out. It's not that clean and been sittin outside on this guys retail lot for months. maybe all the $$$ in this boat is in the motor and transom repair. Cause the boat is not the one. Maybe just me but buying a boat that they tell you they did a transom repair would scare me off. Z

Someone telling me that they replaced the transome would not scare me off. But I would ck it out real good!!

$6500 is not bad for all that you are getting as long as the boat cked out in every way!

Thought I heard that the guy who did the transom repair was some southern red-neck who wheres a thong and use's a Chainsaw. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
Where you at Stink. Wake up and smell the coffee or smell the smoke from your boat from being on fire. ;D ;D

What would concern me is if the transom was replaced what else needed to be replaced and just maybe they didnt have enough cash for that so there where short cuts made maybe, just to get back on the water. Replacing a transom would not bother me if I was the one that had it done and there was no further damage to the hull that needed to be replaced at that time. But with someone else doing it it just throws up a red flag to me. History of a boat thats 20 plus years old is the key. Maybe if a guy had pics that doc. the replaced tramsom and showed the condition of the boat when torn down would be good to let you know everything else was ok...

MJ, i think you told me when i was buying my boat...

1st Rule when buying a boat there is always another one.

Wonder why he doesn't show the inside of the boat? That in itself is fishy. :-/

I paid 5 for mine in '99 w/an '86 motor on it...that's a LOT newer motor and on a newer and better trailer than I got, so I don't think it's too bad a price if all else checks out :D ...
