I have decided to list my boat for sale as my son has decided he doesn't like boats. The boat is okay I had it in the marina all last year so it definitely floats without taking on water and the automatic bilge left me without worry. The engine runs good and is fairly strong though you can hear the carburetor is ever so slightly off may just need an adjustment but I am including an entire rebuild kit for it. The outdrive was serviced last year and the engine has new oil and had a full tune-up as well as both water pumps done last fall during winterization. The previous owner replaced the floor and patched a long crack in the hull the floor is solid and fiberglassed in but there is no ski locker he did give me a hatch and said if I was brave I could put it in but to me its a fishing boat so I didn't need it and never bothered. I put a new radio in it last summer and the fish finder / depth finder works. the vhf is flaky sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't you can usually hail the lock though you probably wont hear their response. It could use a new propeller but the one that is there is functional and a real good cleaning as they gave me a discounted acid wash before they wrapped it and didn't get it fully clean. Not sure what else to say other than I don't want to sell it but really don't want it to just sit all summer on the off chance I can get on the water and fish. The biggest killer of boats is infrequent use so I figured why not list it and if the right buyer comes along sell it if not then keep it. Thanks for looking YouTube videos of the boat if you have any further questions since the place where I keep it has insufficient water pressure to run the boat the videos are the best I can do for you https://youtu.be/sSYHiz9YzYY https://youtu.be/7iDTOg6tp_0 . Every known problem has been listed so winning bidders deposit is non-refundable and winning bid is a binding contract.
On Jul-04-16 at 19:49:58 PDT, seller added the following information:Tried to use it on the 4th and it was a no go so it may not run anymore I just gave up and had some beers and now I am rewriting this for accuracy when the engine runs you can hear the carburetor is off and valves could use adjusting the boat sits low in the water (about 4 inches you can see in the picture of it in the water) I think the foam is waterlogged from when it sank (why I got it so cheap) The 3 foot hole in the hull has been repaired and the floor replaced I'm assuming it was done by the previous owner but could be old repairs. Most of the stuff on the boat doesn't work anymore because its old but it looks ok I guess. It sits in my yard and because of that i keep it clean so the neighbors don't hate me. There is no paperwork on the trailer its for storage only I use the plate off my snowmobile trailer when I tow it because I so rarely do. I paid 200 for it with the trailer and everything I am including and felt like I got ripped off. Boat is sold as is where is good luck and happy bidding!
