A local BJs wholesale club was selling the exact same model through a
local boat dealer last year for $17995. That's probably $30,000
canadian. That's a lot of cash to pay for something Harry thinks very
little of."

Guess I got a good deal then.
On the sales sticker the dealer estimated that 2016 models in Canadian would be around $30k.
Mine is a left over 2015 ordered before our loonie really nose dived. Same old motor for the time being although there are plans to retire the 3.0 in favour of a 4.3 I believe. That sounds like a big engine for a 17.5 foot open boat.

For that boat, I'd be happier with the 4 cylinder rather than the 6. My son-in-law
had the six, on a 24' Chapparal. Lots of power. More than you'd need, I think. Also,
you'd have twice as many manifolds to worry about!
