I saw this last night and thought someone may be interested.
http://www.lighthouselanding.com/sales/Boatlist%20-%20spec%20sheet%20binder%202.pdf
It's on page nine of the pdf.

A wheel version that looks pretty clean from the only view shown. No foresail but priced kinda nice.

I may look at it in October when I visit Kentucky Lake just for the kicks if its still there. bad_kitty is close to this boat and may know more about it if someone wants info before then.

I talked to the broker about this boat and he says its pretty rough.
I never did get him to tell me what the issues were, he was trying to sell me a 2001 oceans 311.

I did make what I thought was a reasonable offer on this boat. It needed around $5,000 to make it serviceable and $8,000 to make it "sweet". I offered the guy $14,000 and they countered with $18,000. Looks like we wont be able to reconcile that.
