Looking at one of these, a year 2000 model with a 502 mercruiser that has 111 hours.
I may be taking a trip down to LA from the Bay Area tomorrow to pick it up if everything looks good. I wanted to see what the community here thinks of it first.
Comes with the custom trailer (it says Advantage on it, not extreme). I even checked out all of the insurance and finance info for it and it all looks good.
I appreciate it!

I wanted that one, but I've never been able to get a hold of the fella. I think it may be sold as the ad for that one was taken down on boattraderonline.com

As dicudmore said, I have one. Had it since new in '97. No major issues outside of a leaking gas tank a few years back. With a blown 509 I've run 114, blown 454, high 90's, stock 454 Mag ran low 70's. The link dicudmore posted is my web site and there is some info on the boats buildup over the years. One of my best friends had a 22 Daytona with a stock 502, he and I actually met racing each other when our boats were stock. It was an even up race, no clear winner. If you want any other info, drop me a line a mltdwn12@qwest.net
