Jon, The Sportfish I'm pretty sure is the old Apre Ski,Which I'm sure I mis-spelled, the last owner was a member here and did some nice upgrades to the boat. The current owner has had her for about 3 or so years now and I've talked to him once but don't know much else about it. He looked like he kept her clean.If you need someone to take a look for you I could get over to see it if you want. I just looked again at the pics,. It used to be the Jen- Rissa 11 and now I'm a little unsure if it was the Apes ski before that or not. Either way, let me know if you need me to look at it.

That is in fact the old Apresski. I sold the boat about 7 years ago to a fellow from Montauk. I think he renamed it Jenn Risa. I owned the boat for about 6 years and did a tremendous amount of work on her including a repower with new mercruiser engines. If I can answer any questions let me know. Miss the boat alot. Although I love my current boat the 33 was probably my favorite in that it was simple and easy to work on.

Frank thanks for the offer to look at the boat but I am not buying anything at this point till end of the season at the earliest. Bob what were you seeing for real world cruise and fuel burn? Also is it just me or do these 2 boats seem to be priced at a premium when you can get 33's with Cummins and Yanmars for 50-65K???? I know they have had a lot done to them but still if I'm paying that type of money I'm going to find a diesel.

I noticed that he basically used your ad and pics on THT from earlier when you had it listed. Personally I think the asking price is a little to rich

$59K seems like a good deal for a boat with newer power.

You arent gonna find a nicer one, The interior was like a new boat, I redid Canvas, Combing and rebuilt the cockpit and de-Teaked it, Put in modern electronics and rewired bridge,,,,,, it goes on and on new fuel tank too. From what I gather the Gen set is probably done.
