This boat is perfectly sound for the ocean. Some cosmetic work may be needed and minor repairs if you choose to want to do them,although  it can be put in the water and taken to wherever your going and back with zero issues, this vessel runs like a top!!!! Only selling because my job is relocating me where there is no ocean nearby, its a very sad time. Being sold as-is and no returns accepted and must be picked up, NO SHIPPING. A $500.00 deposit is required immediately after auction ends and balance within 7 days of end of auction. Like any used vessel or vehicle your looking to purchase, it is best to inspect in person if your able, before bidding. If you have any questions, please ask! Boat, motor and trailer, ready to go! Good luck and happy bidding!!!
