    Acquiring a vessel with a brand new AB console dinghy. Unfortunately I think it's too heavy for the boat and need to sell it. Dinghy is brand new with less than 2 hours on the Suzuki 30hp engine. Includes GPS and sonar, sound system and biking top. According to previous owner, it cost about 25k - make me an offer.

    You realize the alloy hull is lighter than the glass hull for same model/size?

    Of course. I'm getting a smaller dinghy, sans console and a 20hp engine.

    The AB only weighs 284 lbs. Of course, we don't know what kind of boat this was being carried on.

    "biking top" should be "bimini top"

    I guess that may seem like a small dinghy to lots of folks, but I'm trying to shave a couple of hundred pounds off the davit via a downsize. Anyway send me a PM if you're interested, it's pretty sweet.

    Your entire boat and engine weigh 440-450 lbs. unless there's something we're all totally missing. Maybe with a 20 hp on an 11' inflatable you can get down to 250 lbs. Regardless, sounds like a nice rig you have and it should sell fairly easily if you have it priced right.

    It's a powercat and overkill for my needs. Previous owner made a bunch of updates, built the tricked out dinghy and his plans changed before ever using it.
