300 hours with a Mercury 575. I was a little more interested in what people think of the gelcoat.

Doesn't matter, you're taking to Frisco, gay is gay.....:gayfight2:

After a closer look I'm not too sold on the red ass end....but it sure looks good from the front

The nice thing about the red on the transom is that it doesn't show the exhaust soot as much as if it was white or a lighter color. Where did you find those pictures?

Why would there be exhaust soot? It's a mercury engine, it's supposed to be the best thing out there, is the tune not correct? :stir:

But it's an older boat, and although the colors are nice and simple, I've seen a hundred other Elim's with that exact gel scheme. I feel like if you truly loved that boat, that you would've bought it a month ago. I know you're really looking for a 27 standard deck ( I love that model also) and there just really isn't anything out there right now. The one at Eliminator comes to mind, but its like 92k? That's alot of coin and it has wild colors. I'm not huge on the tandem trailer either, I think 3-axles is the way to go on the Daytona's, for style. ICCs are also more difficult to see through. Personally, I think maybe you're getting a little jumpy with summer coming fast, but I'd hate to see you settle for something you don't really want? Idk GRADS, its a nice looking 26, but I'm sure if you give it more time, more 26/27s will start being listed. There's always that beautiful 28 ICC, 496HOs boat, in Havasu Springs for 99k? Turnkey, 100mph boat, and the graphics are nicer and look bitchin... Just my .02.


Btw, I'm always looking at boats on the web, so If I see anything new listed, I'll post it up for you..

Dang PR388, You are dead on with everything you said. It's like you read my mind.

It looks very clean in the pics, and it has a blue motor... standard deck etc... You don't like the yellow? I think its nicer than the 26ICC you asked about?

I thought it had sold as well. The boat was cool but it was kind of beat up for what they were asking.

No I hadn't seen it and quite frankly I got kind of excited until I saw it was an open bow....that's a deal breaker.

I like that one, but he diesnt want an open bow. I think the closes bow is non-negotiable for Grads.

Found it now wheres my beer?

Where's that all white Eliminator, it'll stay classic forever...........don't I know.

Im thinking Grads is just going to have to buy a new boat. Doesn't seem to happy with the pre-owned ones and he will be able to get everything he wants.

It seems to me that price is the deal breaker in your hunt so far. I'm not sure what your budget is but I've seen some nice boats posted here for you. So here is another boat to gaze your eyes upon. I'm not sure it will meet your criteria but here you go... Note: some of the pictures are of crappy quality...

You are somewhat correct. There have been a lot of nice single engine boats posted in the 80-90K range but quite honestly for that kind of money I would rather have a twin engine boat. The other problem is the motors or gelcoats.

I made an offer on a boat today but it probably won't happen.
