I need another project like I need another hole in my head, but here goes:
I've got the "green light" from the Mrs. to look for a family jet boat for next summer (closed engine compartment, decent freeboard). My dream boat would be a 20' Spectra or equivalent.
Will consider almost any condition, but would prefer not to start with a complete basket case.
Midwest location preferred, but willing to take a road trip.
Any help is appreciated.

That's a nice one Futs. A bit too rich for my blood, however. I'm looking more in the sub-$7000 range. Something that's not a complete basket case would be nice.

How work do you really want to do :idea:

I just rigged and assembled an 18 gullwing that was basically parts in boxes. I can do this kind of work if necessary. However, I don't want to fall into the trap of buying all new parts.
I'll have "all winter" to do the work. We know how fast those fly by. I guess my ideal situation would be a boat that is essentially all there, but needs restoration. Then I could go through all of the systems, fix what needs to be fixed, and make it look presentable.
I'm willing to consider anything. Do you have anything available?

I am waiting on a deposit for mine, which he said is two weeks away :supp:
Never know what can happen :mad: not much of a project boat considering I pretty much went through the whole boat recently, new motor and blower rebuilt.

That's exactly the kind of deal I'm looking for. That 21 Tahiti is especially appealing. If it was 1500 miles closer, I'd be all over it. I just need to keep my eyes open, and look for any help from other forum members who might be able to keep their eyes open as well.

Steve,
If you want it, buy it! I can get it to central CA, someone there could get it to So CA, maybe someone could get it to AZ....and so on.
I'm sure we could get it a lot closer to you :D

I have a 21' sleekcraft, 460 Ford, thru hull exhaust, Jacuzzi YJ that I might be interested in selling. You've actually answered a couple of questions that I've had about it. The interior is in need of attention and it could use paint, but when I had it out it ran well other than a broken steering cable. And I just bought one of those for it. I really like the boat, but I'm wondering if I will have time to use it. I've only had it out once since I purchased it a month ago. Let me know if you are interested.

I may have just what you are looking for. I have a Tahiti looking 20 foot mini-cruiser. Don't really know the brand. It has a new beautiful pint job and new hi-dollar interior, and has never been used since it was installed. Most everything is there but the motor and parts. $5500.00 on the trailer.
