It got bad exhaust rot and will need an engine. I didn’t think it was in good enough condition to warrant doing the workWhat happened with the 2004 in NY that I linked before?

To be fair, they are willing to take a lot less for it and the dealer was very upfront about it before I went to see it, not sure why no mention in the ad. They even made accommodations for me to view that and another boat while they were closed. I would have loved to do a deal with them if the boat was in better shape itself.$25k for a boat that needs a new outboard, has very old electronics, no radar and doesn't come with a trailer? Yikes.
Also kind of odd that they don't mention anything about the outboard on the Boat Trader posting or on their website. The only things that the listing talk about are essentially cosmetic items. Sounds a little sketchy, especially from a Grady White dealer...

Apparently there was a tentative deal and when the survey was done they discovered the engine issue.
Figured I would post a little update. I picked up a really nice gulfstream up in Connecticut over the weekend! Super stoked to be part of the Grady family!
