Keep in mind anything from Jersey City or Cape May has most likely been in salt its whole life. What seems like a bargain, may be quite the opposite when you start replacing heat exchangers etc.

Flying to MO this weekend to check out a 45 Sea Ray. Plenty of these around, reliable power, white interior (super dated) and priced right.
The Canada 44 Express seems impossible to buy due to Covid, who knows when it would make it to the states.
New listing today for a 00 44 Express in FL asking 260k!!!! About double what these are selling for. LOL

SeaNile,
I’m not a Sea Ray hater but consider the cored hull issues their over 40’ mid 90’s to early 2000’s boats have. The better fuel economy is a result of a lighter balsa cored hull. Try to be patient. It took us two years and travel from Jacksonville FL. to Midland Ontario to find our Carver Voyager. We finally found our boat in Massachusetts. Some interesting reading below.
Regards and good luck,
Pete
