Newbie here, looking for some advice
« on: June 29, 2015, 03:00:24 PM »
Hey guys, below is a link to a boat I found recently on Craigslist. I've never owned a jet boat before, but am looking to buy one for these hot summer days! Let me know if you have any insight on the Kona brand, and if this seems like a fair price. Beautiful boat for sure!

I would have a hard time recommending any boat with a 350 Olds in it.

I would think it be a lot more easy to replace the motor than to re-do the whole boat paint and upholstery. Just my thought tho. Its all on the buyer whats he trying to do?? Cruise, Speed, or look good, maybe a little of everything.

Are you looking for a good day cruiser or just a good boat in general?

Come and get it !   Cash makes people do stupid things some times  :mad:

It kills me to see this thing just sitting there doing nothing.  The trees are gone now so it has no shade on it.  It won't look this good in another year.
