98' Talari 24' cuddy
 
Going to go look at a 98 Talari with a buddy tomorrow. The boat has a good history to it. We have only been given very limited info on it so don't really know a whole lot so far. The owner says it has the 350 in it. I have no idea if that is a carb or TBI or mag. I also have no idea what out drive would be on it. Anyone know the common package the Talari comes with? Its the 24' cuddy.

The Volvo would be nice but I can tell its Mercruiser from the pictures. They are just poor pictures to distinguish. I tried downloading the 1998 brochure but it keeps getting stuck at 29% for some reason.

So going through the brochures I noticed the boat we are going to look at looks totally different from other 1998 boats and looks more like the 1996. I have some photos of it, maybe someone will be able to correct me if its not a 98.
the info we get from the seller is very limited. The guy has not had in out but 2 times in the past 8 years and its been parked in a garage. I'm just trying to get an idea of what the buyer might be dealing with ahead of time.

Call him and tell him to give ya the HIN # :)
When I got my Diablo the seller was listing it as a 96 and it's a 93.
HIN # tells all.

Well the joy of Craigslist people lived up to its reputation yesterday. As has happened many times before the seller had made plans to meet up and did not show. I hate when that happens- waste of time. For anyone else looking into a Mariah in Colorado this seller is a no show.

Furthermore, I spent a few hours looking for more info on the boat because the seller did not know much about it. From matching the selling description and the photos this boat is neither a 24' nor a 1998. It does however match the description of a 1996 21' Talari. I managed this by looking through the brochures.

Just by looking at the skimpy photos i would suggest a 215 or 225 from '96 but its really hard to tell. I sent him an email also asking for the hull id#. I'll post if i get a response.
