Broker remarks: Simply put the owner of this vessel barely fished and barely used the boat due to his age and only went out on the boat when someone drove him out for a slow cruise. Boat was not fished and only used when he was able. Sorely, He has passed and now the family wishes the boat to go to a good owner as they all loved the thought that their dad had fun until he was called. The port engine was just completely long blocked and starboard was checked and completely serviced including lower units. The boat will be run until the engine is broken in per factory spec's and currently has one hour and we will run to over twenty hours pending not sold to break the boat in correctly and she will run again for a long time.
