    Offer accepted 1995 Sonic 42SS

    Offer was accepted yesterday and deposit in mail today on a 1995 42SS. Boat has 2 HP 500s, one rebuilt last year and one with a valve job and new valve springs about 40 hours ago. Boat only has about 240 hours on it. AC, Genny, arch removed. Survey and sea trial in the works. Got my fingers crossed.
