1997 Contender 27 Open

1997 Contender with 2017 Suzuki DF250s with 1300 hours and fresh service. This boat has been completely refurbished and refitted. Every single wire, fitting, and stainless bolt is completely new. I documented the entire process here: 1997 Contender 27 Open (re)Build Thread

$112k. Located in Miami.

When building this, I was fishing in the Bahamas nearly weekly so it's all built with long trips in mind and safety out 100 miles from Miami being a top priority. She has brought me home when she probably didn't owe it to me considering the slop we were out in. Great boat that I trust with my life.
