265 express

I've seen this one for sale, looks clean, but feeling it might be a little underpowered with 150s.

Thoughts?

This is a Charter boat...also WAY under powered..

 

[SkunkBoat]

shame they put those motors on there. Kind of a price trap now. What do you do?
I suppose if you are just fishing bays and sounds trolling for salmon they will suffice.
265x needs 200s. Yammie or Zuke i4s. Or new light Merc v6 225s
Boat looks nice.
Electronics...meh....
New Tanks? Canvas?

Price the motors. Price the boat. price getting it to OR.

That’s a premium price for an underpowered boat.

they look like 225 typo...? check the transom

It looks like the ad is gone, but 150s would be greatly underpowered. my 2005 has 225's and If I ever repower im going to 250s min.

im looking for another 2004 or 2005 for my son, so if you see one let me know. I have experience shipping them cross country so that's not a big deal, especially right now you can get it down to $1.35-1.42 per mile depending on timing and I have a couple of really good surveyors on the east coast ive used over the years.

I found one kind of local to me here in the Pacific NW, bought it a few weeks ago. Now just going through it and getting things fixed/cleaned up.

Where was it advertised? Curious what you said over here on the west coast (PM is fine)
