Paramedic x 40 years...yeah lots of great jobs, but minimal retirement so still working...Wellcraft 185 driver now...looking at a Grady Tarpon 19

So, as mentioned in an earlier post, I have a shot at buying an 82 Tarpon 19..all there minus the O/B. Best tips on checking on transom and stringer issues. Does it matter that the boat is in hot/dry AZ?? thanks in advance for your guidance Mike

Headed out tomorrow to take a second look at the Tarpon... Any specific tips and suggestions that you veteran Grady owners have for this rookie.. Thanks in advance for your help Mike

The boat was originally from NJ...but is now in AZ...we do get rain...summer monsoons and winter stuff, but the summer stuff is always followed by triple digit temps. The seller is asking $1000 or best offer. Ill find out how long its been in the dry heat.The finish is chalky from the sun, etc...

Sooo....just finished re-freshing a 1975 Wellcraft Airslot 185. Pulled the orange/black stripe astroturf...bright orange upholstery. Replaced with neutral 2 town gray. Bimini top...and strong general cleanup, modern gauges, gps and contura switches....Nice 40mph cruiser for Baja w/ a 200hr 14ohp...
