    Southern boat. Not well know up here. I would be a little wary of a guy selling a boat “AS IS”, and DOESN’T have the title . Sounds like trouble. Maybe that explains the price.

    Now I’m confused ? I posted this on the Boats for sale board…How did it end up here, too? I only did it once? Anyway…I was talking about the price. $11,500 for a 2000 boat with a 200 hp motor and jack plate and hot foot? Should be gone by now!!!!

    As for the title…they don’t title boats in some states (like minnesota) unless there is a lein on it. So no big deal there.

    Looks like somebody altered the USCG capacity plate in one of the photos. That’s kinda creepy.

    I really like the U.S. Coast Guard MAX Capacities plate. Good ole permenant marker!!! How can the FLW argue with that?!!!

    The boat looks clean! Look at where the motor toter goes on the motor..he has rag covering the lower unit so it doesn’t get scratched by the toter. And 400 hours is equivelent to 80 hours a year or 3.3 straight days a year. Is that a lot? Or 2 hours a day for 40 days? Down south that’s about average. Still looks like a good deal to me. Could buy it …use it for 5 years and still get at least 10k out of it.

    I wouldn’t say that is a lot of hours, not when you can get on the water at least 160 days a year. Looks like a nice boat, at a extremely good price. But you know what they say…. If it’s too good to be true, then it probably is. It never hurts to call and feel the guy out. Try getting the name of the people that service it, any previous owners, etc. Good luck

    Fairly common type of CC tag. I would closely look at what appears to be a crack near the tag. KT
