I will stay posted, its going straight to my mercury man. Were gonna be 2k right off the bat. If everything the owner says is yrue I think its gonna be a buy. But............its got a soft spot in the floor, in a place not typical on these boats. So that proba ly the beginning of the end.

No big deal, I have had a soft spot in my head for 65 years, hasn't impacted my life much! Just keep any "Bubba Chubba's" away from that area. Congrats on your new rig, even with repairs you will probably be under 20K. That amount of cash wouldn't buy a stereo and T-top on a new C/C.

At this point I think they are all soft in the floors. Scarab in all their infinite wisdom did not seal any of the screws in the deck. I sealed all of mine this past weekend. PIA.

Lookin good!
Just curious, are you going to put a t-top back on? When I had a cc I ripped the top off in favour of an arch and bimini. A lot more open feel and more shade, maybe not so good if you're doing a lot of fishing.

I have the arch on mine and love the look. But it can be a real pain in the ass for fishing. Can't have it all I guess.

Great looking original graphics! The trailer alone has to be worth 4k-5k. It is always satisfying when you know you can recoup your investment in parts value alone.

Yea, I also got 2 new props in the box. The ones on the motor are like new, still have really good cupping. Bad news in the graphics, theyre cracked, faded, and coming off....
