Just buy it, that's a nice boat. Good luck on your upcoming move to Fla. Lots of good ppl down there are on this site. Where were those pics taken of the boat? I don't recognize the lake or the buildings in the background, but it sure looks nice. Again, happy trails to you with your move.

Will surely flush. No worry on the trailer as it will be sold as soon as the boat hits the water. Boat will be kept on a lift. Pictures were taken this August on the upper Niagara River near Grand Island NY between Pirates Island and Strawberry Island. The building in the background is the Niagara Mohawk Huntley Power Plant.

Good luck with the move.
You will certainly be able to enjoy your boat more of the year in FL.
Nice looking V!

Put some vinyl gloves on and COAT your leafsprings and axle/axles in grease. Thank me later. Repeat every year amd never buy them again. Grease is alot cheaper than trailer parts.

Thanks for the advice on the trailer, but I will be selling it as I do not have a vehicle to pull it, or a place to store it. It's currently listed on Fort Myers Craigslist. Fortunately, I will have the boat about four feet above the water on a lift.
