Yes, that's the one ColinC listed in this thread on 29 August.
It still my favorite of the lot AJC as it has everything except the 420HP GXI motor and dinette table.
Since it relisted again, maybe it's time to make another offer, YTMSN

The salesman called me back on this one today. It's still too high and doesn't have a swim deck rcaptans call, but it's a nice, nice boat!
The Osage Beach boat is nice too but it's too high. Way way too high. It's at least $10,000 out of round. I just talked to Jacob the salesman again, and he said his seller won't come off his price more than $2,000 right now.
I'm the kind of buyer that doesn't mind a little elbow grease to fix up a boat if it's the right one. Lord knows I had to do plenty to the boat that I have now to make it what it is today. That's really the kind of deal that I'm looking for. Anybody can go in and pay full retail for a boat, but I would rather find a motivated seller and a boat that needs Just a Touch of Love. I don't mind putting an engine in or anything else up from there, if it's the right deal!
I really appreciate everyone keeping an eye out for me.

It has Nauti....
Ytmsn is looking for the factory stainless arch model.
The only issue with the 525 EFI's is you cannot get the B3 counter-rotating prop setup.

Hey...price is now set at $70,000 for the Utah one going to auction.
Ytmsn...with your auction connections, you ought to have an inside scoop on this now and pick it up for a cool $35k.
Plus I'll buy your aft filler cushions....AND it has the rare turning helm and passenger seats that you desire.
Cmon...write the check!

I sure hope that's a reverse auction at $70K.
For that price the 343 up by me is a steal at ~ $64K. Twin 525s!

I called this guy back to see if he had put his boat on this auction site but apparently his buyer put it there. Or maybe it's one of those bogus auction sites that someone just lifted the picture and put it on? That happens sometimes
