    588sl haines

    i went to pick up the haines hunter tonight,i was not impressed rusty bits every where jellcoat in a mess at the front of boat (boat ramps)some trailer repaires needed, guards were broken jockey wheel was no good the winch strap was no good had lot's of jellcoat fractures, no seats v cab up front not nice the best part of the package was the motor,so i told him i would not buy it i was so disappointed but it was hard to walk away maybe the older one gets the fussier you become or do we get wiser i hope the latter, as now i will be on the hunt for another boat about 19 ft haines and this bug i got from this site watching Scotty holding up his catch in his new boat.

    cheers,Hilly

    I think you were wise to walk away. Disappointing but sounds like it had a rough life.
    There will be others.

    Don't know how much you intend to spend, but if the price is right on this it it would be a good thing.
