PRELIMINARY LISTING....MORE DETAILS AND PHOTOS TO COME!!
Great opportunity to own one of the most sought after custom sportfishing boats in the world. To build one would take several years of waiting and the cost would be more than double the asking price of this one. "Southern Ground" has had numerous upgrades over the last several years including a recent 1000 hr service, New Garmin Displays, New Starlink, and much more. She is without question, one of the most beautiful boats on the water and a head turner wherever she goes. This is the one you have been waiting for! More Photos coming soon. Contact the listing broker today for more details.
