This one ?? - I didn't see anything on there but maybe it is

yes that one, Looks like a real nice boat. It is also listed on THT and someone posted that they emailed the gentleman selling it and was told it was off the market. I also emailed him but never heard from him. Would be a nice weekend to go to charleston though!!

Gentleman?? Ahem...Must not have been much of one to not respond

I basically took it off the market. I received too many low, low ball offers to continue dealing with the people. For some (stupid) reason some folks think everything for sale in this economy is a distress sale. I apoligize for not responding.

no problem!
It is a beautiful boat!

I chose the floor less one. Why would any one want a good running boat when you can have one all in pieces?? You can spend the next 6 months of your life may by even up to a year working on, getting frustrated trying to put it back together again. You will miss the joy of picking fiberglass out of your arms, cutting your fingers, inhaling toxic fumes, working in cramped spaces and on and on and on.

And there's a problem with that?

I wouldn't know about the maintainence difference - I've only ever run my boats in salt water.
The only thing I do is run a brush over the raw water intake once in a while. Usually when I check the zincs if that gives you an idea as to how often....

Well so far I have gotten to look at the 84 it is in very very rough shape and far to expensive. I also looked at the inboard and liked it. The closed transom is very nice. Boat is very solid. I am going to look at another 85 in the morning. Looks like it was converted from an I/O to an bracketed outboard. Hopefully it is in better shape!
