Winterized fresh water system, added 52 dollars worth of seafoam to the gas, started engines, then let them run out, drained float bowl...

He said with the delamination, and a few other minor problems, I should offer the seller 20k, When I...

    28 Marlin

    Talked to 2 surveyors today, comparable in price, 24.00 per foot, boat only, waiting on quote for the 2 motors.. Might be the best 1000.00 I spend on the boat. Hope it all works out well, I sure do love that boat.. I need to be Striper fishing the Chesapeake Bridge Tunnel the end of the year.
