Default Maxum 2700 SE - Any advise to a potential buyer?

Hi guys,
Going next week to view a 2004 Maxum 2700 SE with a Volvo KAD44 diesel engine. The boat only has 120engine hours and was used to skiing, the owner now wants a dedicated ski boat

I know the engine as there was one in my last boat, it's the boat I want to know about.

Has anyone got any advise for me? Weak points? What to look out for? Good points? Bad points?

I realise they have quite a shallow hull with a 16degree deadrise - is this a problem? 99% of my use will be on an inland lake in Ireland so I won't be on the sea much except in good weather conditions.

Thanks in advance for any tips

wow ....a 2700SE diesel??....that's wild...I thought they only put in gas engines....

well..there's not alot to really tell about ....never approach the dock faster than you want to crash into it....keep things as dry as possible......enjoy the boat....you can go to the gallery and see my boat....

good luck and welcome to the zoo....keep posting here..
