I am close to buying 1990 310 Sun Dancer with 980 hours, kept in fresh water in Nashville. It has 454’s 330 hp Merc v-drives. The broker, of course, says the boast has been well maintained but the receipts for the work seem to be a bit evasive. I’m buying from a second owner.
So I’m assuming there was no five hundred hour maintenance done and if the survey works out I want to have some serious maintenance done at this point to ensure I get the most out of the rest of the time I own the boat as well as having the receipts for the next person.
It does have two year old bottom paint. It had an impeller kit, shaft and prop work as well as oil and filters done at that time too.
Other than oil, filters, plugs and the small stuff, what extras should I have done if I’m willing to spend about $1,500 total. (Yes, I know that will turn into $2,000) My local marina charges $80 per hour labor
Bye the bye, I just joined the site and have been reading for the last few days. What a great source of unbiased info!
There has to be a way to share a virtual cocktail with your fellow captains??
I’ll buy the first round, but only the first, I have this boat to pay for.
Thanks,
Gordon
