Holy cow that is a nice Outerbanks.

Here are some more pictures. Getting closer to a deal. Talking about $35,000 as the final sale price. Engine has alot of hours 3,400. Owner says runs fine, but I'm going into this with the assumption I will need to repower in 1 or 2 years. Electronics need to be updated / added. Wiring is unknown. This is a 1 owner boat that appears to have been well cared for. I figure worst case scenario I'm in for an additional $50k to make it like new. Any final advice?

Isn't this boat located in Mex.?
Have you gone down to check it out in person?
I like all the bimini action. Shade is a must when fishing the Sea of Cortez

Vaquero,
did you have a chance to check out that modified Outerbanks?

Vaquero, That is a unique setup. I like the FB setup. I have the tuna tower and had to add a step and handrail to get over the top rail in a swell. They ought to design those tuna towers with a swing opening for entry. I like the vertical steering wheel. I am going to angle mine slightly vertical from horizontal. If you can buy it for $40, go for it. If you decide to dump the FB, my yard is available.

You guys think Blackman made this FB? Or was it a remodel?

Brian_g, I bought that one on yacht trader. Mine is on J dock with all the new dings. I wish they would make these things so they don't crash into the slips.

Acetone is your friend, takes off all the rub marks. Add a touch of wax afterward and your good to go again!

Charlie,
How about donating those nice little carpeted roller wheels and large white bumpers to a very worthy and needy cause? bill

[Nomad]

Sorry, those are required equipment for PM (post margarita).
