I found this yesterday and Dana said we had to buy it.
It's probably the single most immaculate 81' miller 19' jet I've ever seen or as my wife put it a diamond in the rough. Took it by Big O for trailer tires and the guy said they stopped making those ones 15yrs ago, other than age and slight cracking the tires have about 3/4 tread left.
The owner is in his 60's and ready to move on to something else. Wait until you have an opportunity to see this beauty up close, simply mindblowing. We will take it to the channel on Sundays.

The previous owner must have scrubbed the u-joints/pto with a toothbrush.
This is as close to a 1981 new boat I have seen in a long time.
Very nice.

Absolutely! Providing the water is small:D It's a upper\lower river boat.

How did you photochop a Rubicon into that old photo. I'm also impressed with the color you were able to get out of that old Kodak film after these 26 years. That boat looks to good to be that old, I'm saying somethings fishy here. If not, congrats on a damn nice ride.

HOLY SHIT! Is that all original?
That thing is amazing!! NICE FIND!!!
Almost, the carpet and seats were done last summer. The rest is 100% original. At best I would guess maybe 400hrs on it. The bottom is perfect.

Growing up at Naciemento back in the 80's Millers were very common up there. That was a rare find being that clean and original. Sweet. The trailer fenders were always unique to Millers.

Looks good. I'm trying to get a bunch of Miller owners together on the weekend of the 13th 14th and 15th of july out at the Avi. Come join us. I have a miller too. They are good boats, you'll love it. I'm kinda jealous, yours is in better condition than mine. Nice find! congrats!

Congrat's Todd & Dana!
So, to get rid of Matt, you had to buy a boat? I've been using the ol' "fock off Matt and leave me alone" technique. :D
See you guys this weekend.
