At six this morning, this boat popped into my computer screen,
beckoning
me.....

Then we looked at it and fell in love. Sleeping on it tonight, then

will
likely offer $27,500. 2nd owner has a baby on the way and is taking a
break
from boating. 400 hours on the boat but 200 hours on a new long-block
5.7.
Reason....1st owner failed to winterize. Compared to our boat, here
are
the
favorable points....

1. Bravo 3 vs. Alpha drive


Stop right there and check into possible corrosion problems on that

outdrive
and do a little more research on it.


Ok....nothing showed up on a google search. Would the survey reveal any
current or potential problems?

But if it has not surfaced yet you are probably OK.

Go to boatus.com forums and ask Caroline to run a search on past recalls of
the make/model/year boat you are considering to see if it has had any past
reported corrosion problems on the OD.
