Well I closed the deal tonight on my 97 challenger. My truck towed it without issue and it fits in the garage. My wife can still park her car in the garage as well! The garage parking was a bit tricky! I live in St. Louis, and not in the suburbs. Pulling the boat and backing it into the garage with only the alley to work with was interesting, but it's an easy boat to man handle! :cheers: now I just have to give her a good scrub down and get her on the water.

grats you are going to love it!
 
A great bonus too. The guy I bought it from only used it about 40-50hrs over the last two years. but he had all the maintenance receipts from the original owner. Winterization records from the boats first 10 years and the receipt from a carb rebuild in 2007, and a fuel baffle repair in 2006. I don't see anything in the receipts for a Rave valve cleaning, so I'm sure those look nasty, but it seems if it ran rough, the original owner took it right to the dealer to get it repaired.
 
Looks like you got a good deal. You sound like your on the right track to getting it in perfect shape too. Let us know if you any advise, or get in a jam while doing any maintenance. Lots of summer left to enjoy it. Have fun!
