Thanks for the response, this is what I was told by the previous owner. He was on vacation in Florida while we got a hurricane back here in Maine. He had left the boat docked on a lake. The rain and wind ripped the cover off and shorted out the circuit board, this he said made the battery drain or short out causing the bilge to be in operable. The boat filled with water and was like that for 2 days. He claimed it on insurance and it was fixed by tri town marine in machias Maine. When asked he said everything works like showroom condition. I have the hull number if that info would help you out. Im just wondering if I should invest 18k in this boat as the market for bass cats in Maine is very small?
