Bayliner 3258 Aanti

I purchased this boat almost two years ago in August from original owner who sold it only because of service mistake. Air conditioner hose was lose and boat got water in engine compartment and stern of the boat partially submerged in fresh water. It was removed from water right away, water was drained from all systems, engines were flushed and boat was cleaned. It was winterized by marina in October and has not being in water since. Boat has some minor fiberglass damage where cleat was located on port side, it got broken when boat was removed from water (can be seeing on pictures), otherwise hull is in very good shape. With good buff it will be like new again.Pictures are from December, 2014 when I was there first time since I purchased the boat. I was happily surprized with the condition of the boat. This is my short report (I am retired marine tech and have a lot of experience of salvaging boats). Temperature was 50F that day, so I inspected the boat and found out that almost all the systems and gauges and switches were operable, but one voltmeter gauge on flybridge. Both engines's ignition and fuel pumps and starters were engaged from both controls. Both fuel tanks were checked and only portside fuel tank had water in it and I pumped it out. I was able to start Starboard engine and ran it for couple of second. Sounded really good. Port side engine did not turn over. Could be Starter or engine locked. I had no time to mess with it as marina was closing. From my opinion that nothing serious with it, but you can assume the worst. I did not check generator. Flybridge cushions have good vinyl, but foam inside should be changed.Boat is fully loaded, has twin Mercruiser 5.7 250 hp engines, Bravo two outdrives, Kohler generator 5 KW, hot & cold fresh water system, large head with shower cabin, home-style kitchen and can sleep up to 6 people. Flybridge is huge and can sit up to 8 people. I'm attaching all the images I have.Trailer is a triple axle custom made heavy duty steel painted trailer trailer 15000lb capacity. It has some surface rust but is very solid. Tires hold air since I owe it, but have some minor side cracks, no problem for local use. Not sure if brakes work because of no use. Purchased this boat to bring it to Toronto, Canada, but could not arrange transportation to Canada (I did once, but shipper just stole $3000 and never delivered the boat) and boat was stored in marina for a two years now. I have to let it go since my plans changed, my loss is your gain, this boat and trailer package is totally worth some effort fixing it up and can make your weekends an interesting adventure.There is too many project boats now, but this one has a lot of potential because it was NEVER been in salt water and was just splashed in fresh water.

Boat is located in Dubuque, Iowa. If you recognize storage please do not show up there without appointment, you will not be allowed to see it unless I authorize it.I have clear title for boat as well as trailer's registration.Storage is paid until the end of April, 2015
