I'm guessing it's probably the same boat, and the one in Lake Stevens. Of which there's also a 2006 on Boat Trader in Virginia that has brand new twin F150's on it with 10 hours for almost $30k less. It doesn't come with a trailer, but I'm sure one of those could be had for less than $10k, and...

As mentioned by a few others... I don't have any desire to spend thousands of dollars to put down a product on my decks to then have the boat sit outside on a buoy for months on end, then in 3-5+ years spend another several thousand dollars to do it all over again. As I just mentioned, I have my...

Yeah... when doing a Google search for what you said, it came up with a bunch of different websites from Indonesia or something similar. Either that, or they do have some here in the US but those look to be scams as well, considering the email address is usually a Gmail one, or the physical...

I think my biggest question would be where are you finding brand new 2017 motors, which are almost 10 years old now, for $12k a piece? That sounds very much like a scam to me.

Some more information would be very helpful... like your location, if you're willing to travel, if so how far, what your budget is and what your definition of "good electronics" is...? Here's a 2020 in NC that appears to have the coastal fog color, though I'm by no means an expert on the...

The issue with the argument about the weight being greater because of more standard features isn't valid. When looking at both the 2004 and the 2005 brochure, they're nearly identical in terms of standard and optional features. The only things that the 2005 has that the 2004 doesn't have, would...

Imo... if the outboards on the 2005 have had the exhausts inspected, and even if you wanted to look at them yourself, as well as the price of the vessel reflects the older/original vintage of outboards... I don't see any issue going that route. If the price of the 2005 is similar to the price of...

I'm admittedly no expert here on the comparison of the two models or anything, that being said... I would agree with the 2005 style being the one that I would want to go with over the 2003 for several different reasons. First and as mentioned, the 2005 has the fold down rear seat that is much...

Yes... that was the point... and said as much with the OP having been on the site for over 20 years now. The fact that the new person had 6 messages, all of which said welcome, was the point I was trying to make for potentially being spam.

I've posted the parts manual a couple different times in various different threads. They've only got a few years of boat parts manuals on the RNR Marine website, and sadly don't have every single year. I think the most important question would be how long are the wiper arms that are currently on...

Welcome? The OP has been on the site for over 20 years now. 6 messages, and all with the same message of "Welcome". Spam perhaps? To the OP... here's a link to a 306 Canyon for sale on Boat Trader, of which it has an electric trolling motor up on the bow. Looking at the stern of the boat, I'm...

I was going to say... I'm not sure if someone from PA would come all the way out to the Everett area without charging quite a bit extra, as you'd have to take a ferry each way as well as add a considerable amount of time to the trip before even inspecting the boat. Either way, glad you found a...

Yikes... I wouldn't want my boat beached on the sand/rocks at all, and especially not twice a day for multiple hours at a time. My parents and I had a 17' Arima when I was growing up and we just had a buoy on the sandbar out in front of our beach cabin. At the time, my parents didn't want to...

It appears as though the 257 Advance had a name change in the early 2010's era and then became the 257 Fisherman shortly thereafter. All of the specs appear to be the same from one boat to the other, though most of the newer brochures don't give the outboard shaft length for some reason. Which...

The fact that the outboards have been serviced every year is a bit more reassuring as opposed to something that hasn't been serviced in years and years. Though, I'd still want to see receipts from the seller or business proving that those things have actually been done, as opposed to the seller...

If I'm reading this correctly, you're saying that your boat will be beached for 2 hours every single day?

I've got Progressive's towing option on my insurance policy with as well, though I'm not sure if it's the sign and glide or not... I thought it was a Sea Tow membership, but I could be mistaken. I can't give any opinions on the matter as I've thankfully never had to use it yet, knock on wood.

The $10 was well worth it just to get rid of the ads alone, not to mention it goes towards helping the website, which is great as well. Money well spent.

First off, when you say the motors check out, what do you mean and who supposedly inspected the motors? The previous owner? A Yamaha tech? A surveyor? Yourself? Also, when were they last inspected? I'd have a surveyor or even yourself inspect the entire boat, including the outboards. Hopefully...

I just donated, please put me on the list for no ads, thanks.
