Lot of boat for under 70k A new trailer for it will be about 14, you should have one with EOH. Not familiar with the electronics package but if it all works and has good chip in it, it would be expensive to replace, I’m not a fan of electronics being that old but someone who know the brand can comment on longevity.
Good you like the engines the mercs from year 2000 I have the same feelings as
@kingblazer84 but regardless of the maintenance. Any 15 year old engine can be a surprise so as long as you discount and budget for 40-50k for replacements, you’ll be fine. If you are like my three buddies you may be shocked when you the same or more than you bought it for put backing into it again within 12 months. My brother was the only exception sold his merc 2 stroke 150, 5 years ago now.
Has trim tabs but can’t see heat, or a windlass. Looks like a porta potty? but a head with holding tank and macerator would be nice and up the value even if you don’t use it. Same with the fish holds/live well?
Mostly you are buying a nice big hardtop hull and a boat that would be 200k? new if a similar one was built in 2021. Would be a wicked tuna boat.
if you get it for 55 you still need tax, trailer so, 75k, with 17 year old power and electronics. The two Parker’s listed look a little better at that price but this is a bigger boat if you like that. I’m with kingblazer, maybe wait and see if it hangs around because of the mercs and see if you can grab it for closer to 50.
