    Love the boat !!! Looks like it's in beautiful condition.

    The rope guard is really unique. I have never seen one like that. Must have been custom made.

    Thanks folks, I'll post some more pics and probably have a ton of questions once we get it in the water.

    Never driven a boat like this, I am truly amazed how great it handles. Interior is mint as well. Quite the deal for $2500! No its not for sale :)

    The boat ran great for us this fall. One thing is does do is cavitate badly at any trim position but all the way down. Prop is is great shape, but if you trim it up even slightly it blows the prop out. Possibly engine mounted too high? Thanks
