Looking for a 2003 or newer bowrider. I am located in Tennessee and am willing to drive up to 500 miles to get the right boat. Need it to come with a trailer.

I passed your number on to a possible interested seller. Are there any particular options for which you are looking?

Yes that one is on CL and a 525 won't have silent choice.
There is a 272 in GB WI. Skipper Buds. Search CL

Hey all. Thanks for the help! I found a 2002 282. I think they are going to accept my offer of 28,500. Has. the 8.1 volvo with 400 hours. No trailer. Does this seem like a decent buy? Boat has a little bit of fading in the blue but I think it will buff back. Also, no trailer. So if anyone knows of a trailer for sale between Knoxville and Missouri I am interested in any leads or info as to what trailer to buy. Thanks so much! Awesome forum!

They don't want to pull it out of dry storage until I sign a purchase agreement. Can't even get a mechanical survey done. Red flags. Think I am still looking.

I would be the same way. Mines in the garage and it's staying there. If you want to buy it you look at it there or wait til spring but it will be sold by then. I don't blame them. Is what it is.

You can make provision in your purchase agreement that is it subject to passing a mechanical survey by a person/company of your choosing.
You dont want to miss out on a great boat either. I can see view points from both sides...
