I knew the owner of Galaxie years ago. Our shop sold Galaxie boats in the 80's.

I assume you're looking at a 20' cruiser?

Good hull design,  not built anywhere as tough as a Spectre, but decent.

What do you want to know?

Thanks for the info, Just wasn't sure if it was a hull worth purchasing or if I should continue my search... It's super clean with a mildly done up 460 and a panther jet with the xlerator conversion kit for $3500

Sounds like a fair deal to me,   is it the cruiser? Not tough to make it an honest 60mph boat with reliability to spare.

I had a 89 Galaxie 19'6. Was a good boat, hull had good lines and handled well. Until it turned into a submarine in havasu....
