Default Soon to be new Owner :)

Found it last night....saw it today....going to the bank tomorrow. Don't know the exact name of it but it's a 19 ft Mariah Bowrider with a 4.3 Merc and I believe it's the alpha one drive, I'll confirm it (with pictures) tomorrow. Anyway, wanted to say hello, and was super excited to find a forum dedicated to these boats so that I can hopefully find out anything I might need for it. Here's the link

1993 Mariah Bowrider 19'


The pictures aren't the best, but that's her. The seats were in excellent condition with no cracks. the carpet was a bit dirty, but nothing that couldn't be cleaned. The engine was the most amazing thing about it though.....It fired up immediately. No stutter, or lag or anything. Soooo....that's it. Just wanted to share and say hello.

    The boat is an MX-19. 18'7" OAL, 30 gal fuel tank, 2450 lbs dry (for your towing info). Brochure says it comes with 2 versions of the 4.3 (L and LX) with the LX providing 205hp and although the brochure doesn't mention it, i believe the L was 190hp. Either should have you at 50mph

    Btw,,,,, welcome aboard!

    As bad as it sounds I don't remember the hours on it. He's the original owner though and has winterized it every year and kept detailed maintenance records. Hasn't had a single problem

    Yup, MX-19 like Mikey said. It's the model I had. Great riding hull with plenty of speed. You'll love it. Certainly priced right too.
