bms, nice boat at a good price!

I would suggest you delete the pics and re-post in a smaller size. Takes too long to come up for the average boat shopper. It you are not sure how to re-size, email the pics to yourself and select the re-size option. Then post those here. Just trying to help out on the sale of a great looking boat!

115 in a 4stroke is kinda heavy and a little underpowered i would think. I have that same boat only its a 04 and I purchased it new but upgraded to a 150 Yamaha. That boat can scoot.

Did you go with the F150 or the 2 stroke? The F150 is over the maximum weight rating for the boat, the F115 is about 40 pounds under. I would call it adequate power not underpowered, if your a speed demon it's probably not the boat for you. Not sure of the exact fuel economy but you will think the gas gauge is broken when you run it. I did get a little crazy with the pics, I wanted people to see how nice it looks. It's stored indoors if someone wants to see it.

Personally even if I had dial up access I'd be happy to wait for pictures to load. Makes for easy shopping. Good luck with the sale..............

The boat looks great and you can never have too many pictures! If they were a smaller file size they would load faster for us add types. The pics are about 3/4MB. Here is one of them that is 1/10 MB size.

Sorry guy I was not ragging on your boat. It is in beautiful condition. and yes mine has a 2 stroke which i guess is why I could hang it on the back. I know when I bought mine it came with a smaller engine but I fish Flamingo alot and down there I run long distances sometimes so speed is good

Look at he 4th pic thats the c. enough for two batteries flares and emergency First Aid kit and maybe a small tackle box. It is a killer boat. Put a T-Top on it and some trim tabs and you're good to go

There isn't a washdown but you could put a Y-valve onto the existing livewell pump, it's a Pro Blaster pressure pump. The console has decent storage space, definatly no room for a porta potti. The forward strorage area is suprisingly large making up for lack of console storage. Had a fellow THT member here yesterday, we'll see what happens.

The boat is still available, I've had some offers but just not enough yet. The boat shows like a 2-3 month old boat with only 31 hours of use. I can be somewhat flexible on the price but I'm not going to accept a low ball offer, Spring is just around the corner. We've had a pretty cold winter up here so it's been hard to even think about boating. The boat is 100% ready for the water, you won't spend a dime on it. To answer the questions the freeboard midship is about 32'', as far as I know they are composite.

Reduced to $14500, maybe it's that grey motor holding it back. Or too many hours?

This boat should top out over 30 knts, mine goes just over 30. And mine has a Ttop. Fuel consumption is ridiculously low. I think the 115 4 stroke is the perfect engine for this hull. Good luck with the sale.

I've had a few people look at it that are concerned that it only has 31 hours. I've read a few posts about these engines going two or three thousand hours. What could possibly be wrong with an engine with 31 hours?

The ice on the lake near my house has melted. Anyone that is concerned about the low hours now can water test the boat. I thought I had it sold today but the buyer had his boat sold and the guy called him and cancelled when he was half way here. I can't believe that people are scared of such a clean low hour boat, I can assure you that there are zero issue's with this boat.
