The Mariah Owners Club - New owner 1998 246 Talari

Hi everybody , just joined this site ,still leaning how to get around , seems to have a lot of good information .I am from Moncton, New-Brunswick ,Canada. Just bought a Mariah this past Saturday and must admit didn't know much and still don't know much about the Mariah.Having sold my pontoon boat last fall with the intentions of buying a cuddy with no preference to brand came across this Mariah last October but passed on her as the price was a little too rich for my budget, this spring as the boating season is fast approaching my thoughts went back to the Mariah . It was still for sale and after having a long discussion with a local boat dealer assured me that I could not go wrong with a Mariah so on that note contacted the boat owner and came to a price agreement and bought it this past saturday. wow pretty exited , the previous owner offered to deliver it to my home witch is a 4 hrs drive away for free , great guy I must admit.
The boat looks great and been well taking care of ,only 188 hrs on the motor.Will post pics later

Wondering if someone on this site can tell me the price tag on this boat when sold as new in 1998 ???

Thanks in advance

Richard
