Just came to agreement on a 550

Well welcome to the 550 family. We've had ours for 8 years and love it.

So, tell us about your new baby. Where do you live and where will you be cruising with her?

The boat will be kept inside the lake in Seattle. We cruise Puget Sound and Canada time permitting. Actually bought the boat without knowing that it likely has a cored hull. I’m going to carefully choose a surveyor. The boat is gorgeous and has been kept in covered moorage since new. Just signed the contract. Merry Christmas.
 
Everyone loves pictures. I know I do.

Looks like a great boat with some nice upgrades. Congratulations and hope the survey goes well!
 
Todd, don't overlook those Great Lakes area boats. They have a very short season, are hauled out and stored on the hard when Labor Days rolls around and often are stored indoors in the summer. That's where I bought mine and had it shipped to Portland, OR to be reassembled and some additional equipment put on.
 
Congrats and hopefully the survey will come back as good as the boat looks! It appears to be well cared for.

The 3196 issues have been well sorted in this forum. As long as a blow by test is performed you will have the ammo you need. The soft blocks all failed early in their life so they are pretty much off the market at this point.

The 31 series cats have been proven reliable at this point and are in many members boats.
