Comes with lifejackets, fenders, dock lines, anchors, anchor lines and chains, plus whatever spares I have for the boat. It is turn key and can be driven anywhere. Owners are both professional captains and can deliver on the Great Lakes. If this is your first larger boat, I can also include a day of training if desired. Engines are around 2600 hours
I have a lot of pictures, if there is anything specific you want to see, just ask. I have owned this boat since 2017. I was maintaining it for the prior owner before that. Feel free to ask any questions, I am very familiar with all aspects of this vessel.
Economical cruising speed is 20mph yielding 1.4 mpg.
Boat launches for the season on May 4th.

I am keeping my 28 as my trailer boat, but have purchased a different big boat so it is time for the 32 to move on.

Asking $15k

Good looking boat ! Really like the extended swim deck & transom door. Good price too. Should have no problem finding a new home.
