Rare 1997 Grande Master Silver King with brand new Magic Trail Dual axle trailer. Unfortunately I am moving to the west coast and selling my boat. I am the original owner and invested 20,000 last season for a full restoration (documentation, invoices and warranty come with boat). I had the boat custom built to my specs to improve fishing and make it unique. The boat has low hours, it was stored indoors and always treated well. It is a side console so that you have full deck space open for fishing or passengers. The entire deck had a non skid surface installed at time of build. The boat is 18' 9" and is a rare green gel coat color. Powered by a 175 horsepower Mercury with Merc Jack plate and new ignition to engine harness, all brand new mercury gauges, mercury throttle control, new mercury premium throttle cables and a new mercury tempest plus propellor. The boat will do over 60mph if you ask it to.   It has a new 10 foot Power Pole blade installed. The boat was completely inspected and restored last season by original Silver King builder Mark Scott from Portside Customs who is well known in the community as one of the best boat builders and custom installer in the Tampa Bay area. In the restoration the entire boat was stripped and everything replaced and upgraded. The rub rail was replaced with polished stainless steel, all hinges were replaced with new design friction hinges so that they stay open in any position that you would like. The latches were replaced with locking stainless steel. All lighting was replaced with LED lights front, rear, deck and baitwell. Even the drain plug was replaced with stainless steel. The entire boat was rewired and rerigged with all new electric wires, switches, pumps batteries etc. Dual bilge pumps were set up for safety. Each pump is strong enough for a 30 foot boat. The live well was set up with a new pump and also recirculates and has a timer switch to have the well come on periodically. The boat has Bennett trim tabs with new adjustment switch and a new tab level display device was installed on the dash so you can see what position each tab is in. A brand new stainless steering wheel was installed along with stainless steel steering ball. The ignition is new including ignition cutoff switch, new jack plate switch. A new 2016 model Garmin Color GPS/depth finder/fish finder was installed. Custom aluminum triple rod holders were installed on each side of the console. A high water alarm is also installed as well as an electric horn. A new Lowrance emergency radio with AM/FM Radio is installed. I have both flat cushion seats and bucket seats for the boat. I have the front fishing platform for site casting. Lastly a custom made Sumbrella material cover is included with the boat. The boat was left with the shop for a week to custom cut and build the cover. The color matches the boat and includes covers for the boat trailer wheels. The boat was recently buffed and I have a new exterior Silver King sticker set that comes with the boat.This is a very rare and sought after boat that can hang with the best of new designs out there. I constantly get compliments. It can draft in 8 inches yet is very stable in rough waters/weather and safe for your family. It is one of the safest and driest flats boat out there yet can take you to the flats just as well as a technical skiff. This is a well taken care of turnkey fishing boat which is also great for family and cruises.I can arrange for shipping for non local buyers.
