All depends what and where you are boating along with what you expect the
boat to perform like. Years ago I looked at the same boat but passed after
top speeds were only 30mph and I felt it didn't have enough power for my
family members who wanted to learn how to water ski.

Looking at a 2005 Bayliner 175 runabout (Capri), and wondering if anyone
has
recommendations on it.
Bayliner web sire says $9,995, but Olympic Boat centers say $12,875 out
the
door (tax and set up charge).

Q: -how flexible are dealers with this $9,999 "M.S.R.P." business? How
flexible are dealers in general ?
-what of the 2005 175 (3.0/A-1) in general? The Merc 3.0/A-1 has a
pretty proven track record, right?

Thanks in advance!
