Tahoe Q8i

2006 Tahoe Q8i,only 120 hours! 218 LOA, 86 beam, 3500 lbs dry, 54 gal fuel tank. Purchased in September of 2012 from a private owner in Orlando, FL. Stored indoors for most of its life, then always covered during my ownership. One of the cleanest youll find, as the pictures will attest.

MerCruiser 350 Mag MPI, 5.7l, fuel-injected with 300hp. Bravo 3 outdrive (dual counter-rotating stainless props a $$$ upgrade for this size of boat). Recent service (March 2015) including oil and filter, fuel filter, pulled/greased props, oil change in lower unit, water pump impeller, distributor cap and rotor, two new Deka marine batteries with switch. Performs flawlessly, as new. Tons of power, very quick to plane, even with 8 on board. Its an honest 55mph boat if youre so inclined, but it has been used gently.

Beautiful gelcoat. White upholstery with green accents in excellent condition with small exception noted below. Equipped with stainless fold-down boarding ladders at bow and stern, stainless pull-up cleats and bow protector plate. Extended swim platform (seamlessly integrated, not bolted on like most in this size range). Multiple cubbies for coolers and gear. Flip-up bolsters on both port and starboard seats, with swivel and slide adjustments. CD stereo with aux input. Full gauge set including depth. Tilt wheel. Removable table that mounts in bow or in front of back seats.

Very roomy. Capacity of up to 10 Ive had 8 on it many times. Comes with a large bimini, newer storage cover and all equipment necessary per Coast Guard regs (life vests, fire extinguishers, air horns, lighting, etc.). Also equipped with a freshwater sink and tons of storage.

Ive put around 40-45 hrs on the boat over the past two years. ALWAYS flushed the motor thoroughly upon return; always put away clean. Comes with dual-axle galvanized trailer in good condition.

Known Issues: Approximate 4 tear at seam in upholstery (pictured), bimini is solid but aging. Its serviceable, but just not as fresh/clean as the rest of the boat. Trailer has a few rust spots (nothing structural), and rust on wheel lugs.

Have clear title in hand. Ill be very responsive to questions sent through the classifieds board Ask Seller function. I will also be happy to show the boat to anybody who would like to see it (Palm Harbor, FL, just west of Tampa).
