Very nice and well cared for Four Winns 230/240 Horizon bowrider. It has been an awesome family boat. It has the Volvo Penta 5.7L (280 hp) engine with the Duo-Prop outdrive. Boat will push over 50 mph if needed. Gentle, stable ride. Extended swim platform makes the boat 26' LOA. We also had a custom, high end bimini that covers the entire cockpit. Comes with snap on bow and cockpit covers as well as a full Sharkskin mooring cover. The head has never been used. We use that for storage only. Giant ski locker. Tandem axle bunk trailer has new bunks as well as brand new tires. New stereo head unit with Polk speakers. Engine has around 340 hours on the hour meter. Great for pulling tubers or skiers or hanging our on the hook. Boat has been simply awesome for us. We are only selling to move up to a cruiser.

Boat is stored every winter inside and heated and it shows. Engine oil as well as outdrive oil changed each fall. This past fall the outdrive was taken off to check the alignment which is done every two years. Waxed each spring as well as fall. The boat is turnkey and ready to go.

We use rack storage (in/out) at Great Lakes Marina in Muskegon. Remainder of in/out season ($1,350 value) included with sale. The boat is perfect size for the big lake or trailering to different waterways.

I will be putting up more pictures tomorrow. Thanks for looking, let me know if you have any questions. Asking $19,500.

This will be an excellent boat for someone! I hope your search for a cruiser is as exciting and rewarding as mine was! There are some really nice EC's out there right now (not necessarily FW either). What size range are you looking at?

Thanks. Nothing as of yet. We did have an agreement on a boat last week and it failed the survey miserably. Water in the stringers and bulk head.

Appreciate the offer to finance...but we pay cash for our toys.

We bought the boat and have loved it! Wet Doggg really took care of the boat and its been flawless since. We added 4 more speakers, 2 in the bow and 2 on the transom, an amp and subwoofer as well as a few other small upgrades. New steering wheel, stainless cup holders, extra battery and a new name "Current Obsession". We spend a lot of time on Torch Lake, Burt Lake, Lake Charlevoix, Lk Michigan and a weekend on Grand Island in Lk Superior.
