@Anita_Cocktail - Where did you purchase it? What city? Just curious I've been looking and that's a great price.
The boat was located at Washington’s Landing Marina in Pittsburgh. She spent her entire life until now on the Three Rivers. I know that the boat was meticulously maintained by the original owner. He was the mechanic at the Rinker dealership in Pittsburgh.

@skennelly what harbor are you at in Chicago. I am trying to convince the admiral to slip the boat at Hammond Marina. Non Resident prices in Chicago are crazy. She is concerned about the lake being too rough each weekend. It’s a 90 minute drive without the boat to Hammond. It’s a 90 minute drive to Lake Shelbyville. I just don’t want to trailer my 280 this year.

@Cableguy Greg I started out in Burnham Harbor...that's the one next to soldier field. I have since moved up to North point Marina...it's right on the Illinois Wisconsin border. It's a very family friendly harbor...cheaper and easier commute.
The lake does get rough...you have to get used to hanging out on the dock many days. Within city limits there's a ton of commercial traffic and pleasure boaters that makes the lake quite choppy near shore.
We sold our 2003 342 last October. It was a fresh water boat, spent its whole life in the Nashville TN area. We had it for 3 great years. We did lots of upgrades. Seadeck flooring in the cockpit and swim platform, wood looking vinyl flooring in cabin, sound system, all led lighting, steps into the cabin. It was totally ready to go. 700 hrs on engines and 900 hrs on geny. I sold it for $65k. We went to a 410. Now doing all the upgrades to the 410.
