Bob:<br /><br />#1 Take it for a test ride<br />#2 if you dont know anything about boats you may wish to have a marine surveyor check it out. even if you do know something you may wish to have them check it out.<br /><br />Price seems a little high on that.<br /><br />Good luck..<br /><br />Tallman

Bob - Can't help you on the exact boat you are looking at as I have a 1988 23' Wellcraft Fisherman with twin OMC V4 SeaDrives. Mine ia a fabulous boat and over built if anything. I did have to replace the transom about three years ago but that was the fault of the idiot who mounted the motors without sealing the holes properly.<br /><br />$17.5K does not seem to bad to me if in great shape. I agree with Tallman on the test ride and mechanic checkout. I would price mine around $12-14K if I were to put it on the market but I have no intention of selling it - for now.<br /><br />Howard
