I might be a bit biased, but what an incredible boat!! This is one of my all time favourite models as it fits in most garages and with the higher freeboard it gives one a feeling of security and comfort in snotty conditions. Being a one owner boat and cared for like a member of the family I wish I had a bump in my cash flow situation. Good luck with the sale, someone is going to get a rare and mint donzi!!!

Tim good luck with the sale. It is a beautiful boat. I think it is priced right and knowing its background with one owner has to worth a few $ extra.

Good luck.

She is a beauty I have boated with Tim several times at 1K, it will be a great buy for someone willing to give it a similar home. Other comments reserved until I see where you are going with this!!!!!

Just returned from two days of riding as a passenger in this boat.

ALL BOATS SHOULD RUN THIS WELL

It never missed a beat in 5-6 hours we ran.

Under ideal conditions this boat will run 60-62 MPH, I know this because I had one.

With 4 adults, gear and a full load of fuel, we ran 56 MPH at 4600 RPM.

I also forgot that this boat is one of a kind because of the engine hatch vents.

It is the only Minx I have seen with clam shell vents.

Somebody will get a sweet boat.

Thanks for the ride Tim.

Those are Canadian Dollars. I'm sure our US friends can appreciate
the 20+% dollar difference. That's a sizable discount.

Launched & ran the boat 2X last year and 1X so far in 2015. All good.

I'm just back from 10 days in Canada and the Loonie is about .77!

Don't sleep on this one.

It's still available. Just a little older and a little more rare.

The only 30 year owner I suspect

I spoke with the Minz and it said "take me back to Florida".

Travis, who may or may not, jump on here is bringing her back
to the Miami area. It's in good hands.

Thanks to all for the comments and to Madpoodle for his advice
to Travis. I'm sure he will enjoy the boat.

I can't proof read properly through my tears; I meant Minx.

couldn’t be more happy with the boat! Got to use her once with the family and everyone seemed to enjoy it. Can’t wait to get out again. Had to work after the long trip back from Canada. Thanks to everyone’s advice!! Hopefully I’ll see some of you around!
