Estimated price for orientation: 500 $
Category: Runabouts
Class:
Description Condition: Used Year: 1986 Make: Mercruiser
This is a 1986 Citation bow rider inboard outboard boat. It is for Parts or Repair. I am the second owner, bought it in July 1999 and have a clean NY Transferable Registration for Boat and Trailer. My mechanic pulled the outdrive to replace the rubber boots. He also found that the U-joints were bad in addition to boots and quoted a high price to repair. We have run this boat every year in the Hudson river in Kingston NY. Expected to keep it running awhile longer, but it is time for me to get a brand new boat.To be clear this boat has a few scratches. The interior seats were damaged by squirrels that chewed the tops (see pictures). The front cushions are not great and could use a new plywood backer. The floor is starting to go soft in spots. The outdrive is off of the boat. It is wrapped in plastic and in the boat. Put a new starter in about two years ago. No battery. These same 140 hp mercury engines were made for decades. It was always a good motor, might be good as a drop-in replacement. Still winterized.The trailer got new tires two years ago. It has bearing buddies. Also LED lights. Note the surface rust on the fenders and the close up of rust spots. Painted it with Rustoleum light gray every two years. The front jack works, but I do not like it, was planning to replace it this summer (squeaky).This is a direct sale from me the owner. No fees or hidden charges. Could be good for parts or if you are a mechanic a project boat. The Boat and trailer are located in Lake Katrine NY 12449. This is pickup in person, cash only. I live in NJ now, but will be visiting my parents and available all weekend. I am happy to sign all required DMV paperwork that you provide.
