I have no problem putting my family on board for a day out without worries. It's very fast and roomy for it's size. Extremely stable running as well as when anchored. Handles excellent. It has it's issues. Mostly cosmetic. It was clear coated when I got it and it's peeling off. It comes off so easy i was just going to power wash the rest off and buff out the original gel coat. The interior is pretty much shot. It's still very usable and sturdy but seen better days. I have the rear bench seat for a pattern. The floor is solid as a rock. The transom is solid at the engine. There is no play or stress cracks. To the side of the transom on the port side I had a ladder rip out that was left down when we took off. I had it patched and used the boat since with no structural problems or stress crack appearing. With only me in it on a good day I've had it to 68 mph on the GPS going against the tide. It cruises easily with 4 people at 45 without effort and a lot left in the throttle.It's far from perfect but it is turn key and all original unmolested. With very little effort and money this can be a cream puff or it can be used as is.On the downside, the speedometer was never hooked up to a pick-up tube. I never ran the tube because I use the free speedbox app on my phone. It's much more accurate. The gauge light is hooked up and I have the pick-up if you want it. The fuel gauge is new and wired in but the sending unit in the tank is bad. It's relatively easily accessible but I never got around to changing it out. All the gauges are less then 2 years old. I do not have the registration for the trailer. I can write you a bill of sale. It has a VIN stamped in it which I took to DMV to check out and make sure it was clear but I never followed up to apply for a registration.MUST SELL CASH/CREDIT or PAYPAL ACCEPTED!!
