Has anyone even looked at the boat? Looks rough. Sounds like problems.

Yes. It is the Cumming GA P-29.

Out of curiosity, what does a couple of weeks underwater do to a boat?

I Have a 99 Scarab 29 With twins for sale also, feel free to PM me and I'll be happy to answer any questions you may have or give me a call 586 260-9518

They are great boats, fast, fun and easy on the fuel and small enough to tow but big enough to overnight on during a long weekend. Try and stay with the newer models that have the Bravo drives (not alphas) and Larger 350/300hp motors along with the larger K-Planes, better hardware is less maintenance in the future and better re-sale down the line.
