Nice boat, great price! I like the leaning post. It won't last long!

Mr. Mom · 10-15-2009, 09:06 PM

Thanks, I don't really like the way the pics look above, it does not do the boat justice. I don't think it will last long either, its a great boat! CLEAN

I am considering the Vivid Paint for my 31. has your 31 had bottom paint all the time or did you add it? I would like to know how it affected performance. how has the white held up?

I love the vivid paint. The boat has had bottom paint since I have owned it. I probalby loose a few mph with it. If I have the boat long enough to repaint I will go with another color. Probalby vivid blue or teal. THe white cleans up good but it will stain and it a little work to clean. I leave it in brackish water 3 months out of the year. Whenever i take it out I just clean the sides and the scum comes right off.

thanks.

Mr. Mom · 10-16-2009, 07:39 PM

After seeing the wiring pics of the console, you can tell the boat is well maintained, nice boat! Shouldn't last long.

A 2001 in this condition is hard to come by. I have had over 20 inquiries but no cash yet!

Thanks

what is in the floor in front of the center console? Also is the leaning post/livewell from a fountain?
Thanks

I have sent this ad to numerous friends. This is one of the better deals on a 31 contender I have seen in a while. People will kick themselves for passing on this one. I am trying my best to get one of my buddies to buy it.

littletunny · 10-19-2009, 06:32 PM

Do you know you have 2 squids on your bow? :-) Nice boat!

Horn Island · 10-20-2009, 08:11 AM

I have personally seen this boat, it is clean and well taken care of! This is a nice boat at a great price.

Any bites yet?

It is a solor powered battery charger. It is hooked to the onboard battery charging system. I works quite well.

The leaning post was custom ordered from Fountain whe boat was brand new. It is the bomb. You get the best of both worlds with it. The seats fold up or down. It is really comfortable for long runs.
