Hello

Hello from Alaska.

Trying to identify a boat I'm looking at possibly buying.
I think it's in the Hurricane H733 range.
Inflatable wraps the stern
The inflatable is looking tired and will probably need replacing. Have no idea what's involved and how much money it would cost.
Their asking $12,000 with the trailer.

Engine and jet is new. Glass hull looks good.

Thank you for any help.

A photo or two would help enormously.

Is there a number on the transom? Or other information plates? Hard to tell if it’s a 7 meter or slightly smaller.

The tubes around the back were for launching. Usually saw them in outboards as a safety feature to keep them afloat. Don’t write off the tubes until you pump them up.

Don't try and use the "attachment" facility here. Just upload it to youtube.
Wait till it's finished processing, play it on youtube and while it's playing "copy" the whole URL and paste that into your reply on here.

Thanks for the info guys. Those are the only pictures I have right now. I should be on shore again in a week and will get some more pictures.

Not sure what something like this would be worth in good shape. If I bought it for ten and ended up with a total of 20,000 into it does that sound reasonable? Looks like it should handle weather fairly well.

I'll check out the transom number. Thanks for the tip.
