Good morning all

Just wanted to introduce myself and say thanks to all who have contributed to this site. I have found it very useful when navigating the purchase process for a AS. I initially was looking at a early 90's explorer and settled on a 98 Osprey 245 about 4 weeks ago. Have taken out a few times and now the challenge is finding time to freshen her up a bit and get back out on the water!


Again - Thank you all for providing the info, specs, brochures. This was very helpful. And RickK- although I did not go with the Explorer , thank you for your detailed emails sharing your experience, very insightful!

Good morning,

I have recently purchased a 1979 246 Family fisherman..it’s an I/O (350? Engine).  Anyway, the guy I bought it from kept it in terrific condition.  I’ve had it out a few times and it runs like a top.  I’m planning on using it for fishing and running about with the family (50/50).

If anyone has any advice/experience with this boat they’d like to share I’m all ears!

I attempted to post a pic, but site says file is too large, advice on that would be most welcome.
