Here is a pic at the marina the next day after I got it home. Haven't messed with it much and it's killing me. I have been busy getting the old one ready to sell. It's almost done just needs to be waxed.

Great looking boat! Looks like it's in great condition. Enjoy!

Nice looking boat. Is that jib sail on the bow a factory option or is it something you had added after you bought it?

Just kidding. It looks nice. Can't wait to see pics of you using it on the water.
 
I'm at Anclote Harbors Marina not too far from Stamas boats. I have been there since 2003. The boat now has 184 hours and that pic is before it gets waxed. It was stored inside a barn since new and was very well cared for. The canvas color is growing on me more and more. I was going to change to black but its still very good and has the camper and mooring cover too. First trip will be to St Pete end of next month for the Honda Grand Prix. I take my dad every year and spend the weekend on the boat.www.gpstpete.com
 
Sweet ride!!
 
No pics of inside yet. I will tell you it is like new! I still have to install the electronics/radar and looking at options for an autopilot.

Beautiful boat!! Good luck with her. I noticed no snow on the asphalt down there!! Lucky you!

I hear you about the canvas. I would leave it. Mine is a teal color that I was not into when I bought the boat. The camper and drop back covers were in great shape. I ended up just doing the sunshades and eisenglass. The tops also matched the striping on the boat. So I say go with it!! There will be other things to spend your extra $$ on!!!!!
 
Todd your right about the canvas. I really want an autopilot and a stereo upgrade.
 
Nice looking boat......enjoy :thumbsup:

Keep us up to speed on what you are looking at for your electronics. I have been trying to decide too as my 340 is a blank slate. I have been reading all I can and seeing what a lot of the really experienced guys on here like.....or at least those with a similar budget!:thumbsup::grin:
 
I am going to put the Raymarine system from my old boat on this one. It is the C120 display, dsm 250 sounder, and 2 kw radar. I have a problem though, there is less space for the display on this boat. The C120 may not fit the helm. I will have to see how it goes when I start the install. Looks like Si-Tex makes the SP-80 autopilot for strendrives. I would like Raymarine to go the other componets but the quotes I recieved are just stupid. I love my Raymarine system and find it easy to use. The one time I did have a problem with the display Raymarine fixed it even it was out of warranty.
 
I looked for a long time for a boat with no bottom paint. Most are moored in the water. This one was kept in a marina with indoor storage. I also keep my boats on rack storage and flushed every time.
