Thread subject: Whaler Central - Boston Whaler Boat Information and Photos :: 2000 23 Conquest Advice Wanted

My first post: I'm thinking about buying a 23 Conquest, 2000 model with twin outboards (Optimax 135, 400 hours).

1. What might I be expected to pay for one of these boats in average condition (no trailer).

2. Does Boston Whaler in Florida offer a refurb service?

3. Any inherent problems I should be aware of? I've had it checked out and there are a few bits and pieces that might need attention.

I hope you can help me...thanks. :)

Best advice on that particular model is to go for twin engines. They had to add ballast with single 250 HP installation to properly trim the boat.
