Wow, you sure those pics ain't from a brochure? Unbelievably clean 20 year old boat.

I was thinking the same thing myself NiagaraChillin. I'm not sure how registrations work in the States but I see an "07" sticker on the bow. Still, a damn clean boat if the pics are 07 vintage.

Not often do you see anything 1993 in near showroom condition. If you don't mind the vintage styling that's a boat you want to buy cause someone loved it like it was their own child. I bet it has a log book 2 inches thick of every thing ever done to it since new, from the dealer, using only OEM parts.

You need a new sticker every year but you would be amazed how many people DON'T renew every year... at least in Florida. Spend an hour at the ramp, MAYBE 50% are current. It's not something really enforced. I've been on boats as long as I can remember, never remember being checked once. It's only checked if you're doing something dumb, like making wake in a no wake zone. Then you get the whole shakedown.

It is a twin to ours. The gel coat is in a bit better shape than mine. We love it and everything works like the day it left the factory. The only thing I couldn't take was the interior, had to change the color from pink. So far so good for the King Cobra drive and OMC Spitfire.....

Every 3 years in Michigan...so at most it is only 2 cycles out of date. It seems a lot of times people will renew and then not put the new sticker on until they use the boat...or they forget until they use the boat.

What? You didn't like the conversion van styling?

WOW!!! I always thought my (sold early this spring) 91 Sundowner 255 was rare and in exceptional clean shape, but that makes my old Sundowner look like a jalopy...lol.

Beautiful. Somebody is going to get a great boat and I only hope they continue to take care of it as the seller.

That's my neck of the woods. It does look exceptionally clean.
