I'm having a very difficult time finding one of these that isn't overpriced or poorly maintained.

Located near Albany, NY.

I keep an eye on Craigslist and Boattrader, but haven't found anything good yet. I also check FB marketplace.

Long shot, but EFI would be welcomed. My main thing is maintenance and cleanliness over anything else. I want a mint boat.

Let me know if you can help.

Thanks in advance.

Misterfu02,

I have a 2006 h-190gl and was thinking of selling her. I have not actively started to list her on craigslist and am in no hurry to sell her. I have recently bought a sail boat and want to pursue sailing.
E-mail me and I will send a picture or if you want to come and have a look that is ok too. I have not taken the winter cover off yet but plan to next week sometime. She is in excellent shape with a 190 hp. Volvo penta engine. I live in Elizaville, ny.
Bruce

Hey guys,

I'm still looking for one of these. The last boat I almost bought suffered from rotten stringers. I could literally pull the engine mounting bolts out with my hands.

I'd also consider an H180OB if anyone has one.

Thanks.

Are you looking to stay in certain years? Not sure if your looking for an older decent boat.

I ended up finding a creampuff of a 2006 H200 about 2 hours away.

My main thing with older models was the wooden construction. FW's engineers confirmed the 30th anniversary h200 is all composite construction, even the transom. Very happy to find that out. Of course, the 5.0 GXi was welcomed as well.

Nice find! The wife and I have been discussing selling our H180ss. Want to go bigger, get back into bigger water and something to stay on of course. Wasn't sure if ours would have been too new for what you were looking for. Best of luck with the one you found and it sounds sweet!

I honestly wanted a H180OB but couldn't find one in a configuration I wanted. Everything had 115hp or less outboard power. Love the SS, not a fan of the low-pro tinted window though.
