Well what about all that weight sitting on top of the fuel tank? It won't hurt it? Ill get some pictures posted soon. I found it on boat trader and they were asking $11000 so I offered them $8000 and they took it. It was badly faded and needed some TLC. This past winter I had it wet sanded but it didn't work to my satisfaction so I'm contemplating a wrap or paint. I haven't decided which yet. The hour meter shows 970 hours but the motor runs like a champion. I couldn't be happier with it. The trailer on the other hand is in bad shape. I am going to buy another trader this winter if anybody knows of one forsale or where I can get one
