    New guy here with a few questions about a 228 Seafarer

    My 228 arrived

    Looking for 208 and finding scams

    Lol that one with the 250 Suzuki has been floating around as a scam for awhile. There is a lot of scams. Mainly the seafarer and adventurer. Dead give away is the palm trees and the price that looks cut in half.
