I think this guy might have some trouble selling his 2008 SX230 for 35k

Ummm, Ya they might have a problem asking that price for an 08. But It appears he has the new 185HP MR-1's 2.0, his top speed is 54mph?, must be on the "Dream o meter " not gps, with 55gals of fuel.;) He has a unicorn. Is it April 1st yet?

EDIT: He complains about the wave from a jet boat in his add, but I see no ballast bags or "wake enhancers" with the boat.

If anyone is interested in that one, I’d be willing to part with my 2015 212X for $50k!

The ad is well written, that Sampson tower is expensive, the boat is in excellent condition. Would be interesting to know what he gets for her.

In the PNW, he'll probably get fairly close to that number.

To his credit, the boat shows incredibly well, and it does appear to be extremely clean. I have seen boats like this advertised for $27K and more in Texas, and they sell eventually, but not sure for how much. It seems excessive, but more power to him if he is able to sell. Also, those increases in power and fuel capacity have to cost something :)

That boat is probably cleaner than when it left the factory.

I wanna see that "build in lockable wet storage locker for ropes on the swim deck." I wish my '09 had that option.

...and was that a plastic scupper I saw there...? :oops:

I think he means the space under the clean out hatches... Quite an embellishment, but not an outright lie.

It's well kept, which is a plus. Although, it's only worth what someone is willing to pay for it.
That said, I hear the queen would lounge on the transom, while a eunuch would feed her grapes as they gave thanks to Dionysus (the god of vines and wine) and their 370 hp "chariot" would reach warp speed down the river styx.
