Default Key Largo

Anyone have any experience or knowledge about Key Largo boats, in particular their center consoles, year 2000.
Also the Mariner engines, 2000 Optimax version?

Default Re: Key Largo

I had a friend that had a Key Largo, Bought it brand new, about that year, lost it in a Garage fire.

He said it was alright, but if he had o do it again he would not have bought it.

It is a FL Boat, and not made for the beating that we can give them here.

I remember it was a very light boat and I feel that was one of its flaws. Great of a flat day, and even that it had a sharp entry it still took a beating when the sea picked up.

They are sold here at a local Bayliner dealership, and that said it all to me.

His had a Merc on it which makes Mariner also. The motor seemed great.

If I recall, many dissatisfied early opti owners referred to the optimax as "the optibomb".Many powerheads lost due to faulty oiling issues.
