Good luck with the inspection on Saturday. I'm sure you'll know if this is the boat for you once you see it in person. Compare it to all the other boats you may have looked at already. It's only a good deal if you're happy with what you're paying, what everyone else thinks doesn't make a difference once you're behind the wheel with a big grin on you're face!

If the PQ 280 is what you want you can find one less than 34k. I think there is 2 of them in the OSO classifieds with 502's for less than 34k. Might be able to find more on other classifieds.

So you had a look at the PQ, now you have a base to start looking at others. MrFix has a good point about parts, go look at the Formula and see how it compares to the PQ. Try to look at all boats in your area to get a reasonable idea of how well they have been maintained and the aesthetics compare and/or have held up. You will have to compromise on something eventually, be it motors or hull or even price. I feel wax and vinyl are cheaper than motors. .02
