recent boats for sale

[vvfdfirefighter]

So, I've came to the decision after looking at half a dozen boat; won't be getting a new(er) boat for this season. I've also been seeing a trend. Im looking at early 2000's boats, and if you look far enough in Google you can find ones of that year that were being sold back in 08-09 with around 300 hours on them. Now they were damn good looking boats, I mean come on they weren't even ten years old then. However, the ones I've looked at recently of the same age, now 4-5 years later they are beat up, ran hard and put away wet but selling for 2-3 grand more than they were probably bought for 5 years ago. Craziness

But I'm still in the market for a boat, anyone knows of one around 500 miles from WV let me know. For now I'll just keep enjoying my 87 Supra Maurader!

I did see the one in Orlando, and I do like the one in Austin. I'm a fan of the blue on white. I worry the FL boat is probably salt water or brackish water....hmmmm

I know the santera is outside your price range but damn it's a good lookin boat!

Can't say I'm a fan of the wrap ha

[2500HD]

Funny, i love the wrap but the tower is on backwards!
I love the blacked out look, hate the bright look at me colors.

I like the bright colors, but I assume that reflects my personality. Id probably like it more if it had decals on it at least.

Saw an 04 launch LTS.... anyone know what LTS stands for. Doesn't appear to be as deep of a Hull as a regular launch

Sorry it was not your day man.

I'm digging that Santera. They can be found pretty stock for around 19. Me personally that would be the boat I go for.

Haughy,
You saved me a 23 hour trip and a lot of frustrating. I still owe you. Really appreciate you looking at it for me. Suck it was in such bad shape. However, I'll have a boat. Whether I buy it and she goes straight into storage or the water. Thanks you!

Too bad they didn't wrap the carpet also. Black it out but leave green carpet. Nice work.

I was thinking the same thing. Half ass!

couldn't agree more.

Yeah, I only looked a few pics. That can easily be changed to gray.

The owner was smart to wrap it for the outdated green exterior colour. I bet you he has much less into it than the asking price....

Still wondering about this one.......

VVfdfirefighter, here are the pics of that Launch. This is one of the Launches that looked really nice on the ad. I went and checked it out, and holy crap. The boat was in awful condition. The bilge was full of mildewy water. The whole boat reeked of mildew. The floor was soaking wet. It looked like worn-out hell. And the sides that were white are now stained with blue runs from where the guy used toilet bowl cleaner on the boat and didn't get it off. The engine didn't want to crank the first time, I had to bump start it. It was in terrible shape.

The Iphone naturally turned them on their side. Sorry. But my android camera sucks terribly. Here they are:

This one is my favorite, it really gives you an idea of how this boat was cared for. This is the lower hull that is black.

Good lookin boat right there!




Keep looking... deals pop up here and there. You set on Supras? Lots of good boats out there in the v-drive category around 20k if you look hard enough and keep your eye open.

I'm partial to supra's, ever since I bought my first one 9+ years ago. However, that doesn't mean I'll buy only a Supra. I just looked at a 99 Toyota, an 03 centurion and loads of supra's. I'm on a budget of no more than $18,000. I'm sure as summer ends more will ppool up. That's why I bumped this thread. Usually try to once a week to see what's out there that I haven't seen yet.
