Anyone know this 42 Sedan Bridge for sale?

[SeaNile]

I swear this boat has been listed for sale for a few years now and with different brokers. Anyone know this boat? Won’t let me upload the pic so I’ll paste the ad.

Pretty popular boat. Unfortunately they do look the same when there isn't any detailed shots of the helm or engine room.

It is a pretty boat and appears to be in great shape.

hey i went to see this boat in march, the broker is a really nice guy, i passed on the boat, what questions do u have?

In the research I did the boat has been for sale with 3 different brokers since 2021. When pushed the owners admitted the boat was run aground and the engines were run hot. There are cracks in the hull and the pics of the engines are the most impressive I've ever seen and not in a good way. There are baked brown from the turbo all the way out.

Offer just over 150k was rejected this week and current broker thinks around 190 will get it sold.

I'll admit the other pics and in the video the boat looks really nice.

Is that a bong on the table? And how do you lightly use an Interior?

There's a 370 Cruisers Yachts on YW with a similar story. I have lost track how many brokers have listed it. I looked at it in Wilmington, NC 3-4 years ago.

350 hours, original owners and use it often as a floating condo.

It’s always fun for me to see what’s out there. Part of me still wants to sell my 50DA and get a 42/44 DB.

That's about 20 hrs a year. Meaning to the pump out and back at best. And they over heated the engines and ran a ground? That boat is toast and will need so much work it's crazy.

Give me a boat that's been used with a lot of hours over that any day of the week.

A lab on it's back holding a bottle with it's legs. I have two of them on my outside bar.

You are ruining out of space/lines in your signature for more boats.

Where do you see that?

Where do you see that?

When I opened his link earlier I saw about 20 photos of the engine compartment. Now I only see one, of the outside of the boat. I could see a life jacket to the right in one of those earlier engine compartment pictures.

Ah, yeah I only saw the outside of the boat.
