Those 'no hours' didn't have anything to do with the hour meter being disconnected did it...

I think we'll just disagree on the cause and leave it at that.

    I already stated that i do not believe that boat came in that condition from the factory. Something has occurred somewhere along the line that damaged the boat and repairs (however shoddy) were done to it.

    Mikey, As far as the hull is concerned I agree, but the dash issues had to be factory for they never fit as my pix indicate. The drivers side being the worst with switches not seated and the panel being held off by the switches and the power outlet issue, and the corner repair job which I wouldnt have seen unless I was under there cutting out that rear panel so switches could seat.

    And i believe that boat has suffered some significant damage somewhere along the way and quite likely that the dash/console has been replaced by someone at some point. I do not believe the boat came from the factory in that condition and was accepted by a marina sales manager to be sold to the public as a 'new' boat. I've been on this site since day 1 and have yet to see anyone else ever claim the type of 'factory workmanship/damage' that you are claiming. There is no point in continuing this thread as you will not convince me that you are correct. Thread is now closed.
