i bought this boat tday, in one of the ghetto areas of panama city, panama, for $5K, and have fresh 502's waiting to go in, so i really dont think it will cost that much to have it running nice in the meantime. this boat was reposesed and has been lying on land for 16 yrs, got the legal paperwork and all.. took my paint and bodywork guy and inspected all the bildges and storage areas, transome, etc for moisture or rotten glass or wood, none to be found. the only thing is a missing bottom part of the passenger bolster, swim platform, radio, etc. 1 in a million find
