Another new guy

Postby trwiz » September 24th, 2021, 3:34 pm

Hello! I figured I'd take a second and introduce myself. My wife and I are hot on the trail of a 1999 Voyager 530...going to take a look tomorrow. We just sold our Silverton a couple weeks ago. We thought we'd take the winter to shop, but this seems to be a good deal and we might just pull the trigger tomorrow. So we might be joining this esteemed bunch permanently! Anything we should be aware of as we look the boat over...any problems specific to this model/year? She's got the Cummins 6CTA's w/1300 hours. I believe that the 1000 hour service has not been done...this might end up being a major bargaining point.

Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
