This is what I suspected and now it makes sense that it was an extended version of something else. Thank you for getting this!

I am admiring the beautiful hardtop over the bridge. That was a post sale addition since it was never available on the 444/396 models. Congratulations!

Agree with Tom, especially considering the cost of the hardtop. That boat is $400K pretty easy. If I recall, A/C was around 9K, genny was around 6K, it all adds up fast. Love the HT and the Synthetic Teak. You can spend 4K on that stuff real quick. Good luck on the survey. With a previous owner like that, the survey should not have any real surprises. 8-) er

Pete, I have the 2006 version of your boat and we love the boat. The sticker price for this boat new was in the $760,000 range (CDN) depending on the options. I see you have the hard top over the fly bridge. I do as well and I like it a great deal.

Congrats on your purchase and welcome to the club.

Thanks for the info, tomorrow is survey and test day, finally!

I'll share the details of any "findings" once I know more. The plan is to meet the surveyor and broker at 9am, test drive and bring to the yard by noon, hang the boat and hopefully secure final blessings. Checkbook in hand and can close the deal by weeks' end (as long as insurance paperwork is in hand, but small detail).
