Well I read the thread labeled:
Anyone with 215 Express Cruiser?
This got me thinking (thanks by the way). So I went out and did a search on the 215 EC. That looks like the logical next step. We are having are first kid and we are thinking a cuddy will be necessary and my wife would love a head, I must say I would like not having to hold it myself :wink: I have not sea tested one yet, so I am not sure how robust they are on the water. We are hoping to get something that can handle the waves and wakes a little better than the 185. Until that post we were pretty sure we were going to get a 225 SunDowner from that other boat company.
So.... I found a 1999 215 at a dealer a couple hours away. I told him about my 185, and he said they are desperate for bow riders. He is offering me 13,500 for my boat, and the non negotiated price for the 215 EC is 17K, without trailer, I am hoping I may get him to include it in the price.
At the moment I think the price for my boat is good, it is more than I paid for it, but the price on the 215 is not that great, it is a year older, and has no trailer. I am on the fence. My 185 is emaculate. You can do your hair looking into the gelcoat. The 215 has trim tabs and a camper canvas.
Help :huh:
