Welcome aboard Mike. You didn't mention a price or location so its a little difficult to judge at this point. I'm going to suggest that you read this STICKY on what to look for when buying a used Mariah.

Sorry, it is in middle TN and is 8k.

Sorry I forgot to copy the title lol.

It is going to need a good buffing and waxing. Interior looks like it could use a good clean up as well.

Price seems a little high to me , considering the the boat hasn't been maintained for some time.
Looks like the sundeck has been reupholstered too.

Make sure you use mikeyt's "checklist when you go see it.

Can definitely be a sweet ride for the right price and a bit of TLC though!

JMO as usual

BTW...........Welcome to MOC!

Those extras would be pricey to add on yourself and valuable if you are going to get into wakeboarding. I'm sure that power package is nice on a 21' boat. If the vinyl and gelcoat are clean, like the description says and unlike it looks in the pics, I don't think the price is far from fair at all.
...it's past the tomorrow in your post. What did you end up doing?
