Hi,

I am new to this forum and tried to do a search on SunRunners but I'm afraid I don't know that much about boats. I tried posting this on the SunRunners forum but thought this section might have a wider audience who might be able to answer my question.

My b/f and I are thinking of buying a used 1989 SunRunner 230 Classic with a I/O 220 hp. I can't seem to find any reviews on this boat although I have read that SunRunner was a very good boat company, especially their hulls, until they went out of business. Also, this boat has been kept in storage for the past 3 years indoors for the past 3 years and has not been used. Will that cause problems on the boat? Is there anything I should keep my eye out for?

Can anyone tell me more about this boat? Here are pics:

i would have it surveyed by a marine surveyor. why has it been dry docked. you very well could have seals that have dried out, creating leaks. the engine will need some, tlc before starting. also it is not going to be a fast boat.
