Very nice, well maintained boat. I can't quite figure out the name. I see the work "plan" which is preceded by a shark fin and a couple other items. Can you tell us the name?

[95blklsc]

He is a financial planner..... "fin" and "shell" plan

Also, the name on the boat is vinyl, I'm sure a heat gun and some cleaner would get it all off. The name has only been on the boat for the past few years so it is unlikely that there is any fading.

Wow, nice write up and looks like a beautiful boat....would love to see some pics of the inside.....As mint as it looks you MAY have a shot and getting something in the neighborhood of your asking price but its a tough market out there and there are alot of our boats around selling for alot less (not nearly as nice of course). With the money your father-in law seems to have put into that baby I would try to keep it in the family for as long as you can. I think a gift to his favorite son in law would be in order! Good luck with the sale.

Good advice. I'll see if I can grab a few shots of the inside of it as well. He just refinished the wood as well. I wouldn't hesitiate to buy the boat myself but I already have a 2005 20ft Stingray that I'm looking at selling because I don't use it enough!

I can't say enough, who ever ends up with this boat will not be disappointed. I haven't seen anyone aside from myself maintain their vehicles like my father in law.

Also, he really wasn't sure how to price it. He looked around at different boats like his for sale and didn't see any as nice or that came with as many extras. Just the kicker motor alone is worth good money.

In light of your request for more pictures of the inside of the boat I have added MANY pictures to the pdf linked to in the original post.
