The cuddy is completely stripped. If put back to factory interior with full galley/bath/seats and bed approx. $10,000

This really is not to bad by the time you get it all done.
But I was leiry about the power. Claims the motors are brand new. The pictures of the engines looked to me like they where rebuilds although I am no expert. He says he has not heard them run. The boat has been sitting since 2004. I am sure seals/impellers/etc are dried out and need to be replaced.
Don't know anything about the drives.

I would like to know if anyone has looked at the boat or is in the area of Lake Texoma that can go look it.


Call these guys , the local Fountain dealer . Ask for service.. Don will probably answer..He may know the boat. Or he may check it out for you . They are the local dealer and they are all into mainly large Fountains . I got my 27 fever from there just a short time ago. He was real honest and helpfull.

The interior stuff is not too bad if the power and drives are in good condition. Even if the entire cabin interior and cockpit are 30k you still could be way ahead; however, if the power or drives are bad, you will be upside down in a hurry.

You might be able to find someone on this website who lives near the boat willing to do a sea trial. I know I would if I lived nearby.
