Its the one in County Durham. Told the seller what I'd pay and he refused to sell it saying he paid more then that.
He emailed me again again explain that "You need this boat and its perfect for you" Sent one back saying I don't and no it isn't.

JSP looked at the same boat last year and as far as I'm aware its still for sale!

What on earth is the seller on about, 90hp because its only equal to a 60hp 4S? Plus a boat is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it, not what someone wants for it.

I think he's on about equivalent weight-which is about right.A Yam 90 2 stroke weighs about the same as a 60hp 4 stroke. It does sound like he's desperate to find a selling point though.

With you on the 2nd bit!

Yep, but I read it that he is saying a 90hp is equivalent to a 60hp 4s in performance as well as weight athough he isn't particularly clear on this.

That and the blue one with the single jockey seats (forget the name) are the two nicest looking seariders I've seen.

But shouldn't seariders be rough and ready?
