One of my pals was interested in this boat (first boat)...Hence my questions on diesel operating costs.

It seems a bit spendy price wise

New dingy looks nice. 1 owner kept under cover. V-drives are supposedly better than traditional legs. Electronics are getting long in the tooth but looks like a nice package. If he's going to caravan with you up to Alaska it is probably a good boat to do that with. Don't go on it with him, you'll get 2x2 footitus, that beam!

2007 255 C-Dory Tomcat Cat 65kusd comes with all fishing gear.

Too much in my mind without the rear steering station and canvas and age of those motors.

Things are selling. This one will also be gone by mid February, way beyond my budget for 19 year old engines but at least maintenance is up to date and boat show prices will bring out the "bargain" hunters.

Cheap Boston whaler day Boston Whaler 18 Outrage 25k cad with newer power and trailer

I love these classic Whaler hulls. This one calls my name for some reason. Sits nice and proper (don't look logged). Nice package.
I can feel the cold rain driving into my face just looking at this boat. I remember having a set of ski goggles for when it really poored. Many good memories in open whalers up in the Charlottes. I just can't get myself to go back to the open boat after growing accustomed to the luxury of a windshield to protect from the elements. Great summer rig this would be (if you don't have toddlers who could walk straight out over the transom).

Exactly! My buddy with no kids loved his whaler but upgraded to a 28 Axopar for his girlfriend. He boated 12 month a year before but likely not as much in the rain.

Having owned twin turbo diesels , shaft driven boats for 36 years ( 150 Hinos (4000 HRS ), 270 Cummins ( 1200 Hrs), 330 Cummins (2600 Hrs) . These are hours I've put on, not total engine hours. I totally disagree. Other than normal maintenance, they have never cost me a nickel. Spent more on repairs for my outboards and I/O's than the inboard. diesels.
Old rule of thumb from when I was in the boat business 45 years ago were - to be comfortable financially, the boat should not exceed 10% of your net worth and one should budget !0% of the boat's value for annual maintenance and upgrades. Some years more, some years less, but fairly accurate over the years at least for me.
Hope this helps. Ted

idk, the hull is still 15 years old thats clearly been well used as it's 750hrs into its second main. And they've just redone the bottom paint. And it's a 17foot, not the typical 18 for these. I would expect better if I'm paying 65k.
