Hello to all. I am new to the forum but have searched it extensively for advice on this particular boat. I am looking at a 2004 Sportster LE DI that is for sale locally. The owner says that it has ~60 hours on it.
I have noticed some threads warning of problems with the DI version. Is this boat likely to be a maintenance nightmare? I'm used to a 17ft javelin with a 2-stroke 90hp outboard and it's run trouble free for 10 years.
I don't want to get into a huge money-pit here but I really like these little boats.
I'd like to hear thoughts from any and all on this model and/or 2-strokes with DI.
Thank you!
