    Savvy indeed. I'll second that Ebb!

    These improvements alone cost about as much as one of our boats!
    - 2003 Main by Scott (used maybe 12 times)
    - 2003 150% Roller Furling Genoa by Scott (maybe 12 uses)
    - 2x Lewmar self tailers in cockpit
    - Pushpit

    Save the upgrade expenses and maintenance expenses and go sailing!

    ...not to mention, he's sailed the boat last summer with his baby on board, so you know she's been looked after properly!

    ...Don't forget that the boat is 100% re-wired in 2003 (AC and DC systems)

    ...or that the bottom has been stripped to the gelcoat and barrier coat rolled on for longterm prevention of blisters (ounce of prevention vs pound of cure)

    ...or that the rudder & shaft are *brand new*

    ...or that the cushions are new as of 2003

    ...etc, etc, etc

    Also consider this.... you can get a decent new 75hp outboard for that price, but still have to buy the powerboat to go with it!
