1989 Larson Contempra DC 300. I've owned this boat for over 11 years now, and completed a major refit from 2007-2009, and in the fall-winter of 2017, completed another big maintenance/upgrades.The boat is currently docked in Harrison Township MI on Lake St. Clair, and dockage+ winter storage is paid for. It cost me $2800, and I will transfer it to you. It includes winter haulout and blocking as well.This is a 29 year old boat, and has plenty of flaws, but overall can be a nice boat for you. I'd like to be sure I give as many details as possible so you can make an informed decision.I want to be sure you see the bad first, so you don't waste your time reading if you can't handle a mechanical repair:-I am selling because I just don't have time for it anymore...I've moved for work, and need to move on.--------The port side sterndrive has a bad forward gear. So...only one engine right now has forward. They both run fine. I used it for a 40 mile cruise in May, then on father's day, coming up on plane, forward in the port drive went out.---------The boat has two Sterndrive Engineering SE 106 drives. The boat would need to be hauled out of the water, and have the lower replaced. A new lower is $795 from SE. A haulout is $300The Good:Overall hull in good shape, has some scratches, scrapes and nicks as you'd expect with a 30 year old boat.-Full tank of fuel-137 gallons pumped in June 2018-New Bottom paint spring 2018-ablative black-New Taco Marine semi-rigid rubrail system installed 2018-Hull completely compounded and buffed 2018-three deck hatches resealed, and frames powdercoated 2018-Windshield removed, stripped, powdercoated, resealed, and reinstalled 2018-New bimini tops, and camper enclosure 2018-All new cockpit upholstery, including newly fabricated captain's chair, and completely new cockpit benches.

Questions
My Dad grew up on boats and I want to do the same with him. How much do you want for it as we could get on the drive to come pick it up today if it’s for a good price. I’m really looking for a fun boat that we can maintain and restore if necessary in some aspects.
Thanks,
Erik
