Hi All,
I'm looking at a '93 Ebbtide 180 runabout. Looks really clean. Well
maintained. Some trailer rust. It'll be my first boat and plan on using it
on the river and local lakes; plus maybe the upper Chesapeale Bay. But, I
don't know anything about the brand, durability, or possible problems. I'd
appreciate comments/opinions.
TIA

Decent boats - mid level. You didn't say how it was powered.

You will probably have to get it surveyed to obtain any kind of decent
insurance for it - it's over ten years old.


Motor's 3LMercruiser/Alpha.
Local marina is selling it. They've serviced it and are are familiar with
it's history. Will do a sea trial and correct any issues that may come up.
The previous owner traded it there and continues to use the marina.
If boat insurance is like cars, I can do without comprehensive but need
collision/liability.
