Well - ya'll know I have been looking and considering moving up to a bigger boat - I may have found a deal - the deal would likely be a straight trade for the Ranger. http://www.yachtworld.com/core/listing/boatFullDetails.jsp?boat_id=1769237&ybw=&units=Feet¤cy=USD&access=Public&listing_id=62530&url= Let me know what ya'l think.. Thanks All In A Days Fun!!!

Nice looking boat. It appears to have two plasmas with surround sound based on the "electronics" picture! |

Bummer, I was already planning my next trip down to test out the walk around front of the boat. Keep looking Dean, it'll happen eventually. Thank you Lord for my family and the waters I get to fish

lol.... We are considering an outright buy - he is willing to reduce sales price for all of the brokers fees and then some if he can get out of the contract. We test rode it yesterday - punchy and powerful - not as fast as I'd like but I guess fast enough. The seas were pretty rough at 3' + - and steep so we did not go out for very long. Boat handled it pretty well. The seller is very maticulous about his boat. He knows every thing on the boat and has performed his maintenance more frequently than required. He always flushes with salt away stuff, the boat is very clean and looks to be structurally sound. We never got the tach over 4500 and topped speed at 34mph. At about 3800 / 4000 we were running 28 to 30 mph. The Hondas were quiet and ran great. Needs a new rub rail as the one on it is probably original. The trailer is questionable - might need a new one or at least have this one gone over by a specialist. I am thinking I need to get a surver done but then again the boat is not that big and seems structurally sound. Still thinking about it - Cuddy or Center Console. All In A Days Fun!!!
