I may be buying it.
it has a 70 Yamaha. Not sure why the third pic isn't clear.

Yeah may eventually repaint it
It's a standard V hull but shallow.

I don't know much about it yet or how much. Taking it out for a test drive this weekend.

Sure!

It has motor, a bimini top, a steering wheel, a center console, a trailer, it's appears teal/aqua in color, it's for sale, it's not a very big boat, it has gauges, it has a livewell, and it has rod holders. Let me know if you want to know anything else.

What year/make/model is it? And how much are they asking? Looks like a nice little setup.

Haha I'll find out more this weekend. I'm not very versed in boat manufacturers so I wasn't sure if someone could say " that looks like a '98 Mako" or whatever. I'll bump this after I take her out.

It kind of looks like an old Boston Whaler that's been refurbished. Not 100% on that...but the rounded bow makes me think so.

I was wondering the same thing. Damn seat is worth more than the boat. LOL.

I honestly have no idea what that boat is, but it is not a Mako that I've seen before.

Looks like an old/ mid-90's early 2000's Key West or maybe an old Kenner.

put 3 people on it and see how well it gets on plane, 70hp may be a little underpowered depending on what size hull that is

That is a good question...dang, for some reason I thought it had one. I suppose I can remove that bar.

Not a Yeti.

I forgot the name of those coolers, but my buddy bought one for his boat at Academy I believe. Very good quality and about 1/3 of the price.
