I really love my 19' Hawaiian, and I have visions of greatness for her, and even enjoy working at it, but sometimes it is just really tempting to buy something that is "done".
So, I just want to see what a guy could get for $6500.
Some minimum requirements would be:
- Sturdy low profile hull, (no potato chips and no flat bottoms)
- Nicely finished paint/gel/interior
- hold 2 adults and 3 or more kids
- Berkeley Jet with diverter
- Reliable motor that runs on pump gas
- Be capable of pulling a respectable 5 second wheelie
- 65 mph without blowing oil out the breathers or spinning bearings.
- Makes me go "Wow" and the little red-headed girl go "O.K."
