Thank you Frank, Shawn and Larry for those replies. I realy like the layout too, a lot like the Runaway 36 but smaller and single engine.
Questions, which 3208 do you think is in this boat, 320hp or 375? Probably a 15kt boat if so? They don't list the hours, at how many hours would a 3208 begin to become more work than it is worth?
What do you guys think a good starting point would be for an offer? What do you think she's worth? Never really been very good at negotiations.
Great boats they run very well with the single TA CAT. Make sure the tanks are sound then make an offer. You will not be disappointed. it is a hunt vee bottom design with a propeller pocket. A fine ride.
Hope it works out for you, maybe I'm too optimistic but I really think this might be a diamond in the rough.
I have a 31 year old engine that has Never let me down. Old engines are plain and simple, and built with heave iron. Sink them, over heat them, and they will keep on going. New stuff is a different animal. Old engines can take the abuse like a red headed step child.Thanks Frank! It might be, we'll see. I am very leery of buying a 23 year old diesel engine to be honest. I cannot take on a engine that will blow up up me in a 6 months.
