My choice of engine when looking was an Opti, but they aren't very common on Pathfinders. I'm just glad I found one with a 2 stroke. Yes, loved my Opti on my Robalo. Never let me down and always got me back to port. Wish I had one on the back of my current boat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've said it a bunch in here but per the guys at MBC they quit making the 1900 cause Yamaha quit making 2 strokes. I agree, and I would consider a 2 stroke on the right boat. I'm not writing that off. Just really hoping to find something clean and well cared for. Thanks everyone for your input! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skinnywaters Posted July 14, 2017 Report Share Posted July 14, 2017 Hey guys, Im in the exact same market. With summer in full swing, I am assuming I'm just going to have to wait. But eyes open up here in SC and will share what I find....if I don't take what I find. HA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinnywaters Posted July 14, 2017 Report Share Posted July 14, 2017 But it sounds like we have eyes from SC to the South Florida so we have a good fighting chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HewesYourDaddy Posted July 14, 2017 Report Share Posted July 14, 2017 It's not how mine is. I'd like to know where he got the frame to put that windshield under. Would like to do mine like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It truly looked turn-key and ready to go, and I see you were asking $15k. Would you mind sharing what it sold for? You can message me or if you don't want to I understand. sorry, just saw this. Didn't even require a water test, it sold for ask. Compression was dead on the money, and official hours were 627. it's definitely a seller's market right now, even almost two years later i sold mine for more than i paid.

Thanks - I think your buyer still got a good boat at a fair price. Things are too nutty right now on these old boats. 2200's on the other hand are everywhere I look. There are a number of them by me right now for under $20k - a few well under that. I don't really have the room but I am working on a fix to make it work. Much better value, easier to find, and a great hull. Thx again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justfish Posted July 19, 2017 Report Share Posted July 19, 2017 A 1900 just popped up on the MBC Facebook page Edit: he just posted a bunch of pics and it def needs some tlc so not as good a price as the other pics made it seem. Classic good from a far but far from good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JWalk Posted July 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2017 SW Florida - there are a number of good buys in Naples and Ft Myers. Also a good priced one in Lakeland I think it was. Look on Boattrader there are a bunch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
