Nope. I found a 2018 R30 with all the right stuff on it. Was hoping for a member there to do a cosmetic inspection for me. Boat had some tower damage from the 2018 flood. All damage is repaired according to dealer and the boat is tip top. Ready to pull the trigger but can't get down there myself for ay least a month.

Posted in the Southwest forum also this morning. Hoping to snag this one if it checks out. Twin VP 380, joystick, hard top.

Looks nice. I just saw your post down in the southwest section. I bought a 220 from them.
Yes it looks like a clean or nice boat. Yea any structural damage to the hull would be my question from getting punched between the lift and roof? Do they have any before pictures. Did the insurance company total it. They might have pictures?

About 60k in total damage - but about 45k of it was the tower and hardtop replacement. Starboard side windshield too. Was not close to a total, good idea to ask for some pre-repair photos if they have any.

Cosmetically it checked out well.
Getting my ducks in a row. Looking into 700 mile transportation options, got my new boat lift for my new dock contracted today. I'll be making an offer here this week once I get all the ancillary expenses properly sorted. I tend to work backwards on big purchases so there are no surprises.

If it sells before I can get fully comfortable, there will be another. My current boat was purchased in early October and I got a fairly good deal on it. The boat market is so insane right now that it's a terrible time to be a buyer.

I love the Devil, it’s such a great boat. Just a little small for the water here at LOTO on the weekends. If we were full timers I’d keep the Devil and just not go out on the weekends. LOL. That being said I can’t see keeping both boats and would probably sell the 232. I have your buddies info, plus a few more people that say they are interested .

Update...

Agreed in principle to a deal on that R30. Survey to be completed next week as well as both drives fully serviced and completely gone thru by the Cobalt dealer. Spark plugs, wires, oil & filter, impellers, basically all maintenance brought current. Very excited. Will be getting my 232 ready for sale, so if you know if anyone wanting a nice clean 232 let me know!
