Nice looking boat and one I envy. Very high price for older power but best of luck to the seller. |

It is very nice and looks to be loaded with all the expensive options possible. Agree with Lizard too bad about the old two smokes but Im not surprised its usually either the nice boat and old outdated engines or new engines bad boat. Tough to get both it seems.Martyn |

Funny how someone has gone out of their way to photoshop the Mercury engine logo into the photo over top of the Johnson VRO logo.Martyn |

Tom W. Clark needs to test drive this Whaler and see what she can do...same engines as his 25, but this one has a WhalerDrive...should be interesting..... That is a nice boat. Looks to be in good condition as well, and very little use over the years.

That boat is (and has been) on the local craigslist for quite a while now. It is more than a little over-priced.It is also being sold by a dealer who I have personal experience with and with whom I will never do business again. I'd stay very far away from this deal. |

Very nice Whaler, and .....Super Leaning Post (big sigh here), but way to much. Paid 20K for mine, and minus the electronics box and Sigh, super leaning post, same boat.Duf |

This is a model that has always been well looked after. Going through the photos,I can tell of comfort,as in stern seating,bow cushions. The green canvas fitting has to be custom and pricey. Having looked at all photos I have felt an impression of neatness and of desirable ownership. Naysayers may give their two bits but the fact remain that this unit in the class of "The Mumbler" has a lot to give to new ownership. Price can and always be negotiable. If in doubt,, try pricing all accessories together with the price of this pristine Outrage hull and see what numbers come up. It is one thing to be an arm chair picker but quite another to be a motivated and serious buyer. Yes, this is a very fine example of an Outrage 25. |

egres, no argument from me that it is a super desirable Whaler and appears to have everything you could ask for on a whaler except the teak bow pulpit, which is a very nice accessory. He does state OBO, so obviously, 34K is his starting point. The only negative I would give this boat is the bottom paint, which of three Whalers I have had, bottom paint automatically negated the purchase. True, you can have it re-gelcoated, but way to many good deals if your patient, for the same boat in the low 20's. Gotta admit, man likes his electronics and especially is compass!Duf |

I like the fact that the boat is or has ben under a shed for added protection. It will do nothing for cold temperatures but keeping the penetrating rain and blistering sun over long stretches over its life can't be overlooked. 34K no but should makes this boat if it truly looks like it does in the photos one to strongly consider.
