Just saw it on EBAY......no affiliation
The Perkins power isn't ideal, but the $$ could make it a decent deal.
Maybe a candidate for an outboard re-power ?? .... if ya do, I want first shot at the swim platform asa finders fee !!

Steve,
That is Russ Pechellia's 31 he used to run the 25 web site. I surveyed that boat about 10 years ago, the Perkin's are borderline HP for a 31. The boat needs to be re-wired, repowered and a lot of TCL. Russ made the swim platform himself, I think it's made from Starboard he did a nice job on it. Haven't seen the boat for 9 years.

Highest bid is $2,800 and it says the reserve hasn't been met... Only the seller knows what reserve he put in... It could be ANY amount... The way that action is going (practically no bidding action and what's there is in 450 or $100 increments) I don't see the reserve passed...

For some reason, I thought he sold that when his personal life hit a few bumps. That was the same time that he let go of the 25 site. He has not posted here for quite a while.

Tony,
I haven't seem Russ for 5 years the last time I saw him he was working at Hinkley in Stuart. I knew he had some problems but I didn't know he had sold the boat.
