Question regarding 1996 Fourwinns???

[chadelliott]

I am going to look at this boat tomorrow(saturday) It is a 96 four winns horizon 190 w/volvo penta sx. My question is, did this year boat have a wooden floor and transom or is it all fiberglass? Reason is a dont want to mess with an older boat that may have rotting issues.... Owner is asking $4500.00 obo

Thanks,

That boat will have wood in the superstructure for sure. In fact Four Winns used wood for several years after 96 also. 97 was the first year that fiberglass liners were standard accross all of the bowriders in the line up.

In 96 the bow rider models did have an optional fiberglass cockpit liner with snap in carpet. However, there is still wood in the transom and stringers...in fact the floor is balsa cored also.
