Hello everyone
There are some very experienced, knowledgable people here, so I'm counting on some advice! Thanks. Here goes...
Near where I live, a dealer has two 40 Sundancers for sale:
A. An '04 with 8.1 Horizon gas inboards
B. A brand new '06 with 420 Hp 8.1 Horizon gas inboards
The second boat, as well as being brand new, is only $90,000 more than the used one. It also has a bow thruster, the more powerful engines, extra electronics, and DSS satellite TV in the cockpit (whatever that is - if anyone would care to let me know, I sure would appreciate it).
Both are very good deals, but the new one has extra kit as well as a full factory warranty. The used boat has a navy blue hull with blue exterior trim, and the new boat is white hull with blue trim. If I was ordering new, I think I would have a white hull, because even though the blue looks sensational, it's harder to keep clean. Also, white is a timeless boat color.
Oh, and the used one has just over 200 hours on the engines, and lives in salt water.
If you have some strong opinions of this, I should would love to hear them! :thumbsup:
