I am reluctantly selling this wee cracker of a boat.  The boat has spend all it's life on Loch Earn, but sadly now needs to find a new home.I only bought it last year, but my disabled wife finds it too difficult to get in and out, so it has to go.The hull is in great condition  for its age, the gel coat has faded a bit and there are a few age related knocks, but considering she's nearly 40 you'd expect a few wrinkles.The outboard is great and will keep you looking windswept all day, it was serviced this time last year, but we only managed about 20 hours (if that).  She takes 2 stroke at the ratio of 50:1.She had electric trim that is quick & responsive.The boat comfortably seats 5.She has all the towing attachments needed for water-skiing, donuts etc.The trailer is in good condition and she is ready to tow, light board included, but I cant find the ratchet strap to secure her, so you may need to bring your own.She's a wonderful boat that's very quick and agile in the water, literally breath taking fun.Priced to sell, no offers, the auction will run till the end.The bad points:  Fuel gauge doesn't work and the propeller has a few scrapes from some debris, but neither is a show stopper or will keep you from putting her straight in the water - she has a new battery too.The boat is currently available to view in Stenhousemuir, FK5 4..The custom cover (I bought in 2016) is included in the sale.Just done the maths on this.Trailer is worth well over £500, custom cover £250, so you are looking at £750+ for the boat & outboard - bargain!
