Just purchased a 2006 Sportster 215.

Stupid question. Does the boat need to be in the water for the tach to work?

Are 20 year-old boats worth buying? If so, what kind of things do I look for when looking it over. Seller is asking $8000CAD w/trailer.

Here is the claim…

Reason for selling purchased another boat.

Seats show some wear, but it’s purely cosmetic.

… I will be taking delivery of a new Tacoma at the end of July.

I am already in the club. I am trading in a 2013 Limited with 205,000+ km.
