I bought 2 years ago. The pics where its hanging from cradle is when I bought it. All other pics are within the last few weeks.I used the boat the first year and I was concerned that the side draft carb, actually vented downward because of the engine mounting angle. So I had a top draft GM carb and intake manifolds installed. Still have originals too. The higher carb required building up the top of the motorbox to make room.Winter before last, I had the gas tank refurbished.High water on lake Ontario last summer, I didn't use the boat at all.This June, I brushed and scraped the bottom and painted with Hard Racing Copper Bronze. Launched the boat. It takes on water for a few days until soaking up. Had automatic bilge pump. Now soaked up and floating well.Ive got it to start for short blasts, but cant get it to stay running. Mechanics are in short supply and I cant get anyone to look at it. I think between the rebuild and install of the new carb, and the cleanout of the gas tank, it may have sucked up some crud. Carb might need cleaning or rebuilding again.Anyways, its an old wooden boat, with an old motor. It will probably need fairly continuous maintenance as is. Might be best to do a full restoration. The 21 is a really nice size, easy for one person to handle, yet able to carry a bunch. I truly enjoyed the cruises we took!Its in the water at Henderson Harbor. Its for sale as is, so buyer will have to tinker some or tow it to move it out to launch or to new home. For sale as-is, where-is. If I get it worked on and running better, I'll revise the post.No name on her, so you get to name her!For sale locally. I reserve the right to cancel bids or remove from sale.
My repairs:
Impeller and water pump
carb and manifolds, $1500, build up motor box $500, fuel tank $500, copper bronze paint 2 qts @$90 each,
Just when things were looking up, the "mechanics" started orking on it again...., the three Amigos aren't sure what to do next, and they do not remember the previous repairs THEY did to the boat, OR that I have not used it since said repairs. SO now it starts easily, idles well, but it runs rough when you throttle it up. I am tired of thinking its done, turning around and coming back in. I give up. I am not a mechanic, nor am I able to procure one who is able to make any real progress with this old beauty. It needs repair. How extensive, I do not know. Offered with no reserve. If it does not sell, I'll sell it at the Clayton Auction this August.
