hey guys, I'm new to the site and am going to look at a boat tonight to possibly bye. I am AQUAHOLIC'S roomate and he said to get up here and if i had any questions, they would get answers, quick. I am looking at a 20ft Kachina tri hul. fresh crate motor with mild cam, high rise intake, holley 750 double pumper, Basset equal length twisted headers, mallory ignition, rail kit motor mounts, and much more motor wise, berkley jet set back a foot and a half with a diverter and type A impeller, also has glide plates in the rear to plane faster, stringers which go down the entire length of the hull, brand new apolsestery and carpet with one trip, 2 x 12 gallon chrome gas tanks, new cables, auto bildge pump, trailer tires have 85% tread. what would some of you guys pay for a boat like this? Lemme know.

well, he agreed to meet me at lake elsinore so i can run it and so he can run it one last time... anything I should look for with this boat before purchasing it besides the obvious?

It's going to be a little tuff to check for the condition on the stringers if it has carpet in it. You may find you do not like the single 4 high rise. You may want to pull a couple of plugs in the front, and the back of the motor.
