I`am considering an OA has my next boat,but as I`am in New Zealand and there are very few down hear,its very difficult to gian any information so i hope someone can help answer some questions
1/ In the late 80`s-early90`s they made a sedan sport fisher,At what size did the three cabin layout become avalible ? Ive only seen it in a 51,was there a 46 or 48 three cabin
2/ The boats I can afford are all made in the early 90`s ,how do they hold up at this age? Any history of problems such as osmosis or other inherant problems,One boat i have seen,the gel coat appears very flat,has anybody had any experiance restoring,cutting,polishing these boats at this age?
3/How good are these boats in rough blue water ?(we have some very exposed coastline)
4/one of the boats I`am looking at has detroits 671tbi`s .Whats the fuel useage like ?Has anyone repowered form 671tbi`s,?if so what to? and did you change gearbox`s
Any help will be great
