I've had bigger Gradys so not much transportable experience, Solid boats. Great seakeeping design. Heavy so not real fast.

WITHOUT A DOUBT test drive with friends. Get weight up in passengers like you'd normally have.

They also game the system and put very little fuel in so the boat is abnormally lighter. Ask fuel amount and check quasi accurate gauge.

What OB you getting? Don't go cheap. You'll regret getting less.

Also have bill of sale separate motor price from boat. Since DMV charges registration based on boat $. Not motor.

Hope that helps?
