    Matt.
    Thank you for taking the time you do doing just like this. I'm quite ignorant with the boating ownership life and you, along with a few others are helping me become educated on the subject.
    I am shopping at the time now. The information you have provided is helping me immensely.
    Thank you again. You are appreciated.

      As I've got you here, may I pick your brain about approximate worth/value of one I'm looking at?
      I hate to write "books' on these reply sections but have a lot of detail of a unique possible deal I've got in the scheme going on with an 06 24ft'r I've found local to me

      Firstly...
      This time of year is the time to buy. Buyer competition is fewer and a lot of times people are selling is out of desperation.
      I bought something quite different than the one I mentioned..... much newer and much nicer. Of course, price followed along with the analogies I've given.
      It's a Harris Crowne model. 28'
      It's got a couple engines on the back to keep up with most of those "fast boats" and handle better than many of them!
      Fun to embarrass them!

    Hi Captain Matt - How does a sea trial work if you custom order a boat? Do you have a right to refuse the boat if the manufacturer perhaps didn't do a diligent job constructing it? I've read about all the supply chain woes and consumer demand pressures. I wonder if some manufacturers are cutting corners to get product out to market.

    Great information that can be used for any used boat purchase. The ability to download the motor history is well worth the cost. Thanks

    I had a compression check done via a computer hookup. Tech turned the motor over but did not crank to get a reading. Compression was within 5% across the cylinders. Are these type checks valid or the other way to check via spark plugs?

      Are compression checks done with a computer hookup dependable as compared to the old fashioned way of pulling a spark plug?
