what do you think of this boat?

[stubbsboogie]

We are looking to upgrade our boat and have been searching around and found this 2006 Rinker Captiva.

We love the interior set up and the overall lines of the boat.

It has 198 hours on the engine. Been regularly serviced at this dealer with maintenence records. They are selling it as broker deal so I cannot trade our Glastron in but will try to sell on CL or localy.

Here is the link to the boat on their website.

What do the experts think? Fair price? Good boat any opinions.
Thanks

Depends what you are going to do with it....190HP, 4.3L is the problem! Good price though!

What is problem with 4.3L?

Mostly we cruise on rivers and lake an do a little bit of water sports with the kids. Doesnt need to be blinding fast just comphy and quality. It will certaily have more zip than my current Glastron.

Re: what do you think of this boat?

For people over 180lbs, it's going to be difficult to pull them out of the water, wakeboarding or waterskiing (note I said difficult, not impossible). They may drown in the process, but so be it It's just so much nicer to have that 220HP.....
