Thanks I'm not to upset about it, I knew going in the amp could have some cosmetic issues being a manufacturer refurb unit. So far I only have $382 invested in this system and I'm pretty sure I won't spend more than $750 total on it by the time I'm done.

 

 

A tipo has nuthing to doo with speeling.

sometimes typos help me spell better lol

 

Looked at this boat yesterday. Super clean and is a sweet boat. Not much wear on a 10 year old boat and low hours. Has great graphs too, fishing ready.

nice looking boat there, is the engine jackplate hydrolic or manual adjust? If you got any questions on it let me kno, im a boat mechanic by trade, plus i have access to books and info that are dealer only.

 

Thanks for the offer to help.

It's manual but the boat is already set up properly. Been looking at boats for a while and I'm thinking though it's a bit more than I want to spend this may be the one. My main concern with used boats are the motor. This one has been maintained by the dealer regularly and has low hours considering. The Merc 225 EFI is a pretty bulletproof engine but likes the gas. Not a big deal to me though.

 

dealer maintenence is always good, cant tell you how many boats i see after someone lets their neighbor who "used to work at mavis so he knos what he is doing" screw up stuff royaly, especialy winterizing, cold new york winters crack blocks no problem. The hours are reasonably low and im sure a fishing boat spent more time at idle then anything

 

Purdy....

 

Yes that's good that the hours are low. I was looking at a tournament used boat, 2003 Stratos 201 ProXL that was cheaper with the same engine but I can tell it was abused. This boat looks immaculate, has a cover, side imaging at the console that is linked to the bow graph, and it's a big heavy Ranger. Not a bad combo for a first time boat owner. Just need to re-crunch the numbers again. I don't like spending large amounts of money. lol

 

and i bet that 225 pushes her along pretty good too

 

There was a used Skeeter 21' bass boat with a Yamaha 300 on it out there too.

 

i bet that was a fast one but i dont like yamaha motors, parts are harder to find, they havnt been doing it as long as merc, and i dont like to work on them as much(but thats just me)
