Looking at '94 440 MY

Postby rjr » May 18th, 2018, 10:37 am

Considering purchasing this boat. Cat 3126s replaced the original 3116s in 2003. 2883 hours on engines. Boat has traveled between Ohio and Florida several times. Current owner is OCD about maintenance & upkeep and has all records. Owner has annual spectographic oil analysis. Seawater pumps have been replaced. Owner says after coolers have never leaked.

Boat looked good on visual inspection. Awaiting additional info on 1000 and 2000 hour service on engines.

Would like comments, opinions, etcetera. Anything peculiar about this model? What about engines? Any issues with 3126 model?

Getting ready to pull the trigger and order the survey and engine inspections.

Thanx in advance.

Welcome aboard. That owner used that boat extensively - second set of engines on 2,883 hours. Hope you get a great price. I'd be budgeting for rebuilds.
Thanks
