If you buy this boat you will never be sorry. The day you pick it up you can take the kids water skiing and tubing or take off and go fishing as fast and far as fuel and time will allow. This boat is very reliable with zero mechanical issues. I have owned this classic Whaler for 16 years and have all service records.It is all original with no modifications since new. It has always been on the correct bunker trailer and stored in my warehouse for the winters. The motor is in excellent condition and should never be changed, it is the correct horsepower and weight for the boat and was flushed with fresh water after every use. I always rinsed the entire boat with fresh water as well.The lower unit is new as are all the cables and helm control. Carburetor has been professionally rebuilt as well.The two 6 gallon gas tanks are the best available and are new. The hydraulic lift was also replaced and is in perfect condition and will continue to power trim the motor for years to come. If you are not familiar with this particular boat you will be happy to know it is unsinkable. As indicated in the photos it is a great boat in the open ocean, bay or lake. The trailer is included and also is in good condition, all lights work as indicated in the photos. This boat trailers very easily and is a piece of cake to launch and load for one person. The transom is excellent with no delamination, a possible issue with older boats of this type-not this one. The copper sleeves for the drains were replaced last year as well as some minor chips and dings that were also professionally repaired. All the screw holes for the rails were professionally repaired and the rails are very solid. Included are all needed accessories, tow line, bumpers, extra fuel tank, dock lines, canvas bench and center console covers, extra marine battery and life jackets too! I have great video of the boat underway at full speed available by email to any serious buyer.
