Hi guys,
I´m totally new to this world of boats but really want to have one and would like it to be a very nice, good and fast one.
Here in my country I found a 185 Bowrider from year 2002 and y the pictures and everything I talked to the owner seems to be a very nice option.
I´m not a Sea Ray fan because I´ve never had one or sail in one... but reading on the web I would say it sounds like a pretty good option.
Are there any special tips that I should check before deciding on this beauty?
The Engine is a Mercruiser 4.3 TBI V6 and looks like the propeller shift is 19... (not quite sure what this means though)
The boat has been used 400 hours and that makes me think it´s been a little abused but, then again, I´m new and I cannot compare this numbers to cars numbers which I clearly understand... see what I mean?
The price, hehehe.. maybe you will call me crazy but despite gasoline is cheaper than water in my country, everything that moves is very expensive... I would have to pay something like USD 16800... nuts uhh...? but this is what we pay for a 2006 Ford F-150 pick up truck to give you guys an idea...
Well, I can feel I will get lots of hints from the experts on this matter...
Thankful in advance...
