now did he measure it from tip to tail with the motor up? or down? perhaps he measured on a trailer from the ball to the prop LMAOLOL $5k overpriced and 5" overlength
...Wait, I see it's actually listed at 18' so 11" over the actual LOA.

This 26ft Ironwood with twin Hondas has been for sale off and on for well over a year now. Note in the Grand Yachts description that it refers to the boat originally having a single Honda 225, and then they added a second Honda later. I think the hours are deceptive because they're reporting the hours of the newer motor. That single Honda must've been struggling to push that much boat. Here's what I wrote about it at the end of May when it was listed:
This owner must be reluctant to sell and/or delusional about the value of his boat....the boat was listed for quite a while last year for $175,000. You can see the old listing here, but I'm not sure the photos are still working:

The ad posted this week <edit: end of May> says "by owner". When it popped up a few days ago it was listed at $158,000 and the ad text said "appraised at $175,000 last year" which might be another way of saying "the broker listed it at $175,000 last year but it didn't sell". The ad was edited this morning up to $168,000 and the bit about the appraisal has been deleted. It's a pretty cool boat though..
Ya he took off the line about $2000 for the waypoints lol

If I can get this deal done, i'm definitely ripping those Honda's off and installing a pair of Merc 470 IO's and calling it the "AntiPod"...hahaha

This thing seems like a junkload of boat for the money, are these things well regarded? Seems like a great deal with those 2012 Yami's...

I don’t actually think these are selling this high. Couldn’t be.

Ya I feeling the same way. I would be surprised if he got 8 or 9 grand for it.

Heres a realistic price for a D/ E you just have to drive 2500km to pick it up.

Thank you for that... I also mentally appraised it at that! 15k gets you a quality double eagle.

A lot of fishing boat. Not the best cruisers I'd say. I wonder if that'll be the ticket moving forward with all the restrictions. Now the wife HAS to be on board... or overboard.

I saw this one the other day at the boat launch in Sidney. Very nice looking with a sweet arch on it. But man did it look tippy at low speed as they were docking. Obviously the weight of the passengers wasn't balanced, but they were leaning big time.

It is an Opti, so fuel consumption is not bad, but you'd better bring earplugs 'cause it'll make you go deaf...
