Looking for a 262

[Ytmsn]

His boat is black. Don't ask which part...

[Ytmsn]

I'm going to go take a look at this one tomorrow. It's the one that's really really high but I think the owner has come to realize that after four or five people have told him the same thing.

But I sure do like it!

Nice boat and low hours. Looks like the owner has taken good care of the boat. I would guess that financing for that age boat it tough. Throw the "cash buyer" today at him. He'll likely fall apart like a cheap suit. It's getting cold in Missouri.

[cmattj]

Thats a great price for a 502 with CC!! It appears nicely taken care of and low hours. Good Luck Today

[Ytmsn]

Thanks Matt! I really like the blue one I looked at the other day but the guy would not come off his crazy high price more than $2,000. This one is better equipped except it doesn't have the stainless steel Arch. I'm thinking I can find one... Somewhere. I already found a black anodized reverse Arch I can put on that looks really good. Of course I have to get it bought first!

[cmattj]

You will know when you see it.. and always remember that as hard as it is to "order a used boat" there will be others if it doesn't click.
I have flown all over the country in quests. $$ to come home saying I rather be a thousand out of pocket than have something that would kinda work but not made me go @#$%@ yes look at my Boat!

Going to look at this today. Fingers crossed!

I like it. Surely this winter a super deal can be made on an arch or new fabricated one! If all the fabricators aren't deer/duck/squirrel/grouse/groundhog/coon/possum hunting every day until April!

[Ytmsn]

Well guess what? The hunt is over!

[Ytmsn]

It has a 8.2 (502) VP with CC, trim tabs, badass stereo with led lights in the speakers, fire suppression, onboard charger, hot and cold water, transom shower, cabin heater, retractable transom light, bow and all the aft cushions, windshield wiper. Pretty much everything but the arch, unless you count the black ones on the rear deck!.
It belonged to a McDonald's exec. I'll be changing out the seadek sure

[cmattj]

Awesome news! Those pictures are amazing and you scored a sweet 262 with some great power and options.. I like the seadek especially on the anchor locker.. very oem looking..
Looking forward to some more pics and video!!
Congrats again!

[Driller]

Congrats. It certainally looks like you've found the right boat.

The quad speakers on the transom are a nice touch.
