Hemmed and hawed for quite a few months over which boat to break into the CC world with... Thanks to a CCFan spotter, picked this up from a local dealer after resolving a few hiccups. Story (according to the dealer, selling it on consignment) - Single owner, always kept on trailer under cover, put out on weekends for grandkids. Owner in his early 80's, traded it in for a bigger boat due to growing family. Recently replaced interior, which looks incredible - including CC embroidery. Exterior is nearly flawless after a buff job by the dealer. Motor has 710 hours. Initially drove well on the test drive, then had an overheating issue, which seems resolved after replacing the T-stat, which was found to be stuck. The trailer is this boat's only possible demon that I can recognize... They put new tires on it for me, but all of the plywood pieces are rotten. I don't see much/any rust, but haven't been able to properly inspect the bunks yet. Towed well, so hoping nothing major to worry about there. In theory, very few actual miles on the trailer, spent a lot of time as a boat dolly. Notable needs: - considering a tower, likely new dimensions - current bimini is a bit tired, but need some cover in the NC sun so will be leaving it until I figure out the tower situation - stereo setup is a joke... a couple of outdoor speakers sitting on the floor - will upgrade in due time - probably a million other things, but that's all I got for now!
