What am I doing wrong?

[karzrus]

I must have been living too well or something, because Karma is getting me back.

I want to buy a 3-8 year old or so 2100Br with at least 225 hp. Something like what BadBK found.

I don't need to steal it from the guy, just find a very good boat at a fair price to both parties. I'm thinking in the $20-35,000. I hope/think that should get me there. Right?

Where are they all?

I am considering the white with red stripe 1996 boat, but really want newer.

Am I competing with everyone else for these boats and none are available?

if your wantin to go fast and keep a good smooth ride then a cat is the way to go. you could get some really nice outboard cat boats for that kinda change....

AO 2600......shadow cat outboard, .......chris cat outboard....30 foot spectre, .....the list goes on.....and those boats will run like hell and handle rough water....

That Racine Wisconsin boat isn't as sexy as a 2100BR, but is a fiberglass liner boat so you'll have less 'rot' worries. Seat bases and floor are all 'glass and shouldn't rot. The core and stringers and transom are still wood or balsa core, but hopefully the newer boats were built with more care?

Geez, I know where a nice 2100BR 300XS combo is....

Everything is always for sale.

I want a finders fee. Looks like it may be a Wildman boat too. Call 18765513429

[BADBK]

^^^ I would be on the phone right MEOW if I didn't already have one!

Good find!

 

[DropTop5.0]

Thank you, thank you very much. I saw it a few days ago and I forgot to post it up here.

Hmmmm... $50K for it a month ago. Something sounds fishy, @ $28K worth a phone call though. Google the #, couple different craigs ads from Ocala to Jacksonville.

 

[karzrus]

Thanks for the help everyone

OK so I'll call Wildman in the morning and make sure he actually sold the boat to someone. It looks to me like a scammer is reposting Wildmans add given that Wildman still has the add up on here. If it's legit I will owe Drop Top, because I would be stupid not to buy it.

I saw the adds for both those 20 footers before, For me there is not enough HP on the br and the brx's just can't catch my eye so I never even consider them.

 

[WILDMAN]

That's my boat, and I still have it. I googled the area code and it's a scam out of Jamaica.

 

[karzrus]

Back to square one

Still not finding a 2100br,

Besides the scam on Randy's boat, the nice looking Black and Blue 250xs boat in Grand Rapids is sold. Really it would have been above my price range anyway.

I know it seems unbelievable but I really think there aren't very many 5yr old boats out there for sale right now.

Just be patient, when Dad bought the ZT he was looking for a 2100BR as well and just jumped the gun on the ZT because the flame graphics and low hours caught his eye, a few months later there were a few good 2100's for sale and he regrets not waiting it out for one.

I know where there is a clean 06' ZT 219 for sale and its only 4.5 hours from you lol

 

[john lamon]

Hey just an idea, not a 2100 but my dealer in stoon still has a brand new 09' 2000 BR, I have no idea what the price is now but I'm sure he's tired of looking at it so might be a good deal.

 

[karzrus]

Thanks John

I called Pally, about that 09 2000br they said it's not rigged so anything could be put on it. I have asked them for pictures and a price with 250xs on it. We'll see what they say?

 

[john lamon]

He's probably gotta order a 250xs, his slogan used to be "call the merc man" and now he's big into e-tec's, there's about 8 merc dealers in town so he got into the other ones, I got a few more pics of it here.

Nice looking boat. Would look OK with a white motor on the back too

Might be the last of the pre-BRX 20' boats for sale new

Prove it, P.M. me a price you think I would/should be willing to pay(something reasonably fair) and that you would have to take because it's too much not to.

I dare you.
