Well, if the straight bottom Mystique with 425HP (?) is 100K and you can buy the T/S Mystique for 130ish, which would you buy?!?!?

The boat was in pretty good shape(structurally) when I went to look at it, but it was really rough around the edges. It looked like there was never a cover placed on it and it just sat in the FL sun for 3 years. All the vinyl and stitching had very little color left, the vinyl was dry, and there was some damage to the port side aft portion of the boat, all cosmetic though, nothing that couldn't be fixed. A few light bulbs were burnt out, a few switches were bad, the dash throttles were corroded, the trim pump which lifted the hatch was leaking under the back seat and on the cockpit floor, but like I said, a little TLC and a couple weekends of elbow grease and she would be in good shape. Nonetheless, it was still a solid boat and I almost has a contract for it, Tres was asking 82K back then. I guess now that it's fixed, it's worth 20K more...

In any event, the motors looked good and I saw the overhaul work order. The work was done by TNT Custom Marine to the tune of about 21K, the the motors should be fresh and ready to go.
