I have to tell a little about my situation before I get into the description full blown.I bought this boat a few years back with the intention of heavy offshore fishing in the Gulf of Mexico. I took it home and got started on it, I am an automobile repair facility owner by the way, . I completely rewired the boat and installed all new gauges, switches, stereo and lights. It has a full compliment of gauges including a fuel minder, when you have two motors that gets a little pricey for the gauges themselves.Then I replaced all the macerator pumps, bilge pumps (3), sea water pump and the fresh water pump. The macerators include 1 for each fish coffin and then the head, 9 pumps in total. Then, like I said, I was going offshore and didn't want any trouble, never had any either, so I turned my attention to the motors. I rebuilt all the carbs, I'm sure they need some attention now, Replaced the starters, the stators and flywheel, the power packs and coils. I replaced the fuel/oil injector pumps and water pumps along with stats. The boat has Barrnett Trim tabs, SiTex autopilot (used once). I loved this boat and fished regular, never afraid to run 50-60 miles, even 90 once, THEN I got sick, developed COPD and then debilitating arthritis in my ankle. I would still go to my boat on a regular basis and wash and polish and start her up. THEN came the open heart surgery, triple bypass. Seems like it all went down from there, The COPD has progressed nicely, to the point I couldn't climb up the ladder to get in the boat if I wanted too. The situation now is, the last time I went to her I felt like I was 35 again and did a few things. I cleaned her up started her and put new water pumps in. I also replaced the starboard gear case with a brand new counter rotating unit along with the matching prop, they have not been in the water. I also replaced the bow roller, anchor rode, anchor windlass and anchor, all with brand new lewmar equipment, and they have not been in the water. YEP I was going fishing again. That was the last time I seen her. That was 2 1/2 years ago. I'm sure she's a filthy mess right now, but she is undercover, high and dry at Port Hudson Marina in Hudson Florida I still pay her rent every month hoping to go out but I realize now that, that isn't going to happen. I'm not trying to give a sob story I just want you to know that she was well taken care of until I couldn't any longer. Okay, there is a triple axle aluminum trailer that comes along, it DOES need bunks, I have new brackets and bolts but it needs the carpeted wood. The tires have about 50 miles on them but they were put on when I BOUGHT the boatThere is a 6 man liferaft and an EPIRB. The fuel tank holds 300 gallons and there is about 80 gallons in it, I always used ethonal free dock gas and Startron. The motors were always desalted upon return without exception. I can't think of anything else to say, if i do I will add it later. I want 12,500.00 for her and that is a FIRM price. She is sold as is, where is. I just want somebody to love her again.Thank you for listening to my dribble.
