Thanks for the offer, but Arizona is a little too far. I'm picky so I will want to see, drive, see and drive again, etc... Looking for something more in my area.

Which is where?

There is an add on donzi registry for a repoed 28 pantera twin 500 efis I would bet you could steal it. The banks just don't want to be in the boat bussiness. I would offer 45K

Split, the boat I referenced in an earlier post could probably be bought real reasonable, and the run time is fresh water(in the lakes around Mt. Dora Fl.)

Told them I would have to think about it, and I decided to sit on it and see, figured when the 08 models maybe they'd be willing to negotiate more. Got the news today that they sold her. O well, just wasn't meant to be I guess. Anyway know of or looking to sell a 271 or 292 low hour/clean/resonably priced for sale?

Split, Call Ocean Outboard in Merrick, NY....they have an 05 271 still in the wrapper......ask for Bob Schaefer..

The 05 still in the wrapper was the boat I was trying to get. Ocean Outboard was who I was dealing with. I dealt with George Balabus, talked to him last Monday and he said that it was sold. Offered me a decent price on the used 04 they got there. 74K with 79 hours on a 496 HO , but some people have expressed their bad used boat purchase experiences with them with me, not sure if I want to buy a used boat from them now. If you know something I don't now, please let me know.
