Thanks guys going back this weekend need to do some cleaning and taking off some of the old lettering. I will take pics of the outside and engines and post them. I wanna see if you guys think i got a good deal
I see that the boat is from Crofton, which is just a couple miles from me. I'm betting it was originally purchased at my marina, which used to be a Rinker dealer.
I think you did just fine on the buy. An 03 freshwater goes for 60-65k here so your 02 salt boat would probably be a 50-55k boat as long as the drives are not Volvo plastic. The $40k deals out there seem to all be Volvo plastic drives that must be replaced.
@liberty44140 not sure about the salt water my mechanic said if it has been in salt water its been in very little. But no volvos. 6.2 mercruiser bravo 3
Very nice! My 280 was originally in brackish water. I have her in fresh water now. I had to replace one exhaust manifold that had a small crack in it. Other than that, I haven’t had any residual salty problems.

Sore? Our V-berth is still firm, which is good considering it's a 2002. The only trick (for us and the dog) is getting into and out of it. Need some kind of cool folding step or something. (hint hint to our resident maker of cool boat things)

The "step" for the V-birth is built in on the S/B side in front of the short closet.

Yes there is a step there but it's a bit awkward. I was thinking something that could flip down in the front. I doubt there is a feasible way to do that, but it would sure make it easier to get up and down from the V-berth.
