Wanted: 24-28' sport fisher type vessel.

[Seagirt]

If you aren't in the market to buy a boat right now, the next best thing is to help someone else buy a boat! I'm not tied to any one brand or model, just the run of the mill type sport fishing boat. Striper/Seasport/Grady White/Trophy/Shamrock/Pursuit/Silver Streak/so on and so forth. Budget is around $45k

Basically looking for:
Outboard(s), or inboard without a doghouse especially a diesel on a straight shaft
Kicker
Head (not a porta-potti)
Hull built post 2000-ish
Motors with about 500 or less hours (1000 or less if diesel)

Here is an example of something I was looking at (on the bigger side of things), but it isn't for sale anymore. And, as far as I can tell it is actually a 2802, not 2870.

Any leads on a decent boat are appreciated. I'd prefer location to be Vancouver Island, but if there are still deals to be had south of the border I'd be interested.
