we sold our 1984 galaxy with the ever dreaded 470 mercruiser even though it was well serviced and taken care off for our new baby, (i think we made out pretty good, especially after doing my homework and gathering as much knowledge as possible here on iboats, thanks by the way).

its a 1986 sea ray 210cc. this thing was a 2 owner, never docked, kept extremely clean with all original and maintenance documents. new outdrive mercruiser 260, transom, motor rebuild mercruiser v8 (350) and everything was checked and surveyed. sits on a shorelander all roller trailer.

can not wait to get her out on the lake with the family. I'm sure more pics to come soon. it was starting to get dark out soon after we got home with her.

First, Welcome to the club. Nice looking boat, it does look like it was well cared for. My first SeaRay was a 1987 17' Seville bow rider and it had the convertible top like yours and side panels to fully close it in, was nice in Feb to go out and take a boat ride, my current boat came with the tall bimini and I had a custom full enclosure made for it. I like it much better than the convertible top, convertible you can not stand up, tall bimini you stand up straight and walk around. Just something for you to think about for more comfort when extending your boating season.

Oh! Where are the pics? :D

A pic of my current boat.

:)Nice boat nlain. Yeah this one was extremely well taken care of. 2 owners with all documents. A dr owned it from new till 98 then the next owner till I just bought it. Can't wait to get out this weekend for sure. I have been looking at the bimini and can get one for a good price so that's next to come. I have 6 month old that will be needing shade. I can't upload pics from my droid so ill have to wait till I get on my computer later. I promise they are coming.

I think its time for some IT moderators to get together and build an Iboats app for smartphones!
