Crownline 196BR

1994 Crownline Bow Rider Boat for sale by owner - includes excellent trailer

• Length 19.6 ft
• Beam 8.6 ft
• Includes galvanized EZ-loader trailer in excellent condition - passed VA safety inspection on 7/14 with new sticker. Has new spare tire, added in 2016.
• Upgraded 310HP Indmar 350cc V8 engine - inboard/outboard. The engine was replaced by an earlier owner as a complete package from Indmar that included a Holley 4 barrel carb, ignition system and new Mercruiser manifolds. The power to weight ratio this boat has will top most anything on the water. Getting on plane is effortless, and the boat is awesome for tubing or skiing and reasonable on fuel.
• 319 total hours on the boat and less than 150 hours on the new engine
• Includes dock lines, 2 new fenders, anchor with about 90' rode, and five life jackets. All navigations lights functional.
• Only been left overnight in the water maybe three times while I owned it - has always been kept on the trailer or a lift/rack.
• Bellows was replaced in 2015
• Captain chair is upgraded, with a hinged fold-up bolster that makes it great for a more relaxed higher seating position - great for getting the wind in your face as you are scorching over the water. I had originally planned on swapping out the second (port-side) chair with another adjustable height chair, but never had the time - the original captain chair and new adjustablealuminum pedestal I purchased for this will be thrown in for no charge.
• Includes bimini in good condition, custom snap-in bow and cockpit covers, and a storage cover.
• Includes an additional fill-cushion for the bow to make the area fully flat for optimum sunning.
• Rear seats on either side of engine box can be moved to lower or upper positions for either good comfy seats, or a good long suntan spot.
• The swim platform on the back is excellent for climbing on/off tubes, and there is a convenient fold-down ladder for swimming/skiing.
• Includes 3-person Airhead GForce 3 tube and tow-rope, both in near-new condition
• Brand new AM/FM/Bluetooth/MP3 radio + 4 speakers
• Brand new storage/travel cover
• Extra propellor and various maintenance equipment/supplies/spare parts for boat and trailer. Will also include engine maintenance/repair manuals.

All issues with the boat are cosmetic (photos attached) - the hull is totally solid:

• There are several small nicks in the upper fiberglass on the starboard side, about even with the captain chair, just below the window, none larger than 1/8 inch square (photo with my fingers in it...).
• The port side seat has a couple small splits and wear spots
• The port side inner vinyl and the engine box have a couple small wear spots/splits. They are all probably patchable - I have an unopened patch kit someplace that I will include if I can find it. Strictly cosmetic - boat still looks great.
• Carpeting looks good for this year boat - some small discolorations, but nothing major.
• The short piece of decking between the forward bow seating area and the cockpit waterski storage compartment was cracked and the previous owner overlaid it with a small piece of wood and carpet.
