I am in Seattle looking at a 1984 3400 express. She was re-powered in the early 2000's with straight 6 cylinder 300hp Yanmar Diesels (That fired up cold in less than 2 seconds) She's in pretty good shape overall and has decent electronics, (Auto pilot, Radar, GPS, etc) there is also a small Zodiac with a 15hp Honda 4 stroke O/B. There was a complete PPI survey 2 years ago that found very little wrong and the boat was just pulled and painted. I am going to have a mechanic give it an inspection. My question to you is what should I look out for? is this a good model and is $28K asking price a fare one? I will be putzing around puget sound into the San Juans and Victoria.
