Prior to purchasing the Chief I was planning on building a commercial fishing boat and was done with go-fast boats for a little while. Boat builder was overbooked and I was looking at a couple years before I could get what I wanted. So I bought the Chief, went though it from front to back, and made it like new. About a month after getting the boat perfect and spending a ton of money, the commercial boat builder calls and tells me one of the buyers backed out on his slot and if I wanted to buy it. Timing couldn't have been worse for me. So I put the Chief up for sale at a heavy financial lose, hoping to be able buy that slot.

42' Chief
Thanks J for all the info, it's a beauty. Does anyone else have any info on this vessel (i.e. origin of purchase, maintenance records, etc.) I am pretty familiar with it but have noticed it's not exactly something you can find a value for on NADA and most insurance co have no records or idea about what a Chief boat is.
