Hate to even say it,  that's a $6,000 boat. $7,000 if it passes all my tests.

Definitely hold out til the right one pops up, patience is your best friend. I honestly think think that Tahiti is worth half the price. Don't let that money burn a hole in your pocket and cause you to settle for something you don't love.👍🏼👊🏼

There are a lot of NICE boats for sale out there right now with full stringers, a BBC/BBF, and Berkeley pump with original gel for half the price.

its completely fine you just confirmed what I already thought. I don't want to offend the guy by making an offer that low so I'll just pass or wait till he drops price. What are some of your test?

Very hard to put a price on older boats. From the pics it looks clean. Sprints are sought after as they are good riding and good looking boats. And my personal fav lol. Not gonna be as fast as a winger or Daytona but have a lot of potential. 8500 with motor is not a bad price if the hull/motor/gel/pump is in good shape. Plus all original adds the cool factor :)

Yes the gel coat  is 9.5 out of 10 the carpet  is like new the interior is really clean has a couple cracks in the top of driver an passenger  seat but that's all the motor was pulled not for any mechanical  reason only to do performance  work cam pistons crank lightened  an balanced tri mettle  bearings roller rockers an the tunnel ram an both holly  the jet was pulled apart an turned down for less cavitation the boat over all is a 9.5 of 10 the glass on the runners look like it was glassed yesterday  still clear looking I believe  your correct  about the haul the motor an jet work combo make the boat to fast for the haul it start to get out of control  a little dipping the nose in an getting squirlie  so I just back out slowly  to avoid sucking the whole seat up my ass lol its completely  beautiful  but my wife just hates it to fast for her so I might be interested  in a wake boat or something  of that sort
