Nice find TR. Another TRL gem. Other than some speaker cover wear, she appears to be in very nice shape. 👌
Wishing there was a GXI engine in there. Not sure why the vinyl sticker is white. Maybe just the picture. 🧐

Maybe it's just the angle but I bet the tongue weight is WAY off on that trailer. The axles are way far forward.

That's from to much sun! He drove around with the hatch open saying hey look what I have in here 😂😂

I've seen that on quite a few Volvo engines. Cleaning chemicals too?

In today’s age of no difference in idle sound and limited CC, the GXI decal is on order 🤣

I too was interested in that (unicorn) boat. I spoke to the dealer at length, but he wouldn't budge on the price at all. I know it is only worth what someone is willing to pay, but it is still a 15 year old boat. NADA estimates its value at $35k. Even adding a 20% premium for condition and low hours would be too low. I guess the "unicorn premium" is an addition 22%.

I did seriously think about it and ran the numbers several times, but still found that the divorce would be more expensive!
