Mariah Shabah hard to locate.. :(
 
I've been looking daily for a Shabah 96+ and have really only come across a hand full through the eastern side of the US. Why are they so difficult to find? It stinks to have cash in hand, but nothing buy. I've searched craigslist,ebay,boat trader exct..
Just curious as to what approach to take to finding one?
Thank you
John.

What size range are you looking at? What type of budget do you have?

I'm looking the the 10k ballpark, Really nothing bigger than a 23'. I have a newer crew-cab gmc 1500 with a towing power of about 6000lbs (on paper). The z210,202, exc..all catch my eye. I'm located in North Ga.

I've seen the majority to be located in the northern sates..Guessing they were produced in the Illinois-Wisconsin area?

Benton, Illinois was the location of the factory. As far as what's available, there really aren't a lot of Mariahs for sale right now. Watching eBay, Craigslist, kijiji and our own Marketplace might be your best options.

John, Just keep your eyes open. Boating Atlanta by Lanier used to be their dealer and many were sold and are still in GA.
Keep searching the site below for when they pop up.
allofcraigs.com - Search ALL of Craigslist
