EDIT:
Sea trial today and finalized the payment/paperwork. 1994 Bayliner 3055, single 7.4, Bravo II, 514 hours - turn key with the exception of I broke the bathroom faucet (how to fix?) and the shower sump pump needs replacing. Fully loaded minus a gen set. $16K. Planes about 19mph, WOT 30mph per GPS.
This weekend is going to ROCK!
P.S. Got her in the slip, but single engine and my first time... not gonna lie, it took me about 5 mins. Not alot of room in the marina!
IF SOMEONE can tell me how to post pix I will. File size is 97kb and my pictures are like 600kb - what to do?

Went looking at cruisers this weekend and found a really nice and clean 1994 Bayliner 3055 Cierra that was priced a little low because it's nearing end of August. Put in an even lower offer and just found out this morning it was accepted!
I opted for a mechanical and hull inspection over a marine survey... and should that go as expected, I will be a boat owner! I picked the marina to have this done at and the seller had no issues with it... a good sign. This boat is CLEAN and has all the indicators of a boat that has more than it's share of TLC by the owner.
Will post pics, price paid, and more once sea trial and inspection have been completed. Anything can go wrong... but my spider sense is telling me this is the real deal... wish me luck!
