Description
Thanks for reviewing our ad. It did not give me the space above, but the engine serials are "G03304513" & "G04312349" and are 1995 and 1997 respectively. Neither have had issues though we opted at the advice of our mechanic to have the head gaskets, thermostats, hoses, stators, triggers and ignition modules replaced / overhauled. We had this just completed a few days prior to this auction. Also, the gear oil in the lower end units was flushed and impellers have been changed. The month prior, we had the fuel tanks flushed and cleaned to begin the season, including of course new fuel filters. While the vessel was being worked on, we opted to have the bottom cleaned and repainted with high grade West Marine bottom paint. We chose black as it is very neutral colored and will be appeasing to most anyone. Mechanically the boat is in marvelous condition and has had any and all work as advised by our marine mechanic do have completed. The boat has a nice am/fm/cd stereo system that works great. The bilge pumps are recent and functional. It is a walk around cabin, GREAT offshore rig, and comes with an expensive set of outriggers that are in most excellent condition.
The boat handles well, is very dependable, and has everything well sorted that we know of. The only mechanical squawk we know of is it needs one of the trim tabs, the actual tab itself, replaced. (less than 100$), but our mechanic didn't have one at the time it was in the shop. The hydraulics work for it, just the actual tab needs replaced.
Comes with a very nice 23ft tandem axle trailer with newer tires and correct bunk positioning.... very easy load and unload. Pulls well, trailer well suited for the boat, and a later model 2000's trailer. We bought the trailer to replace its original this year at a cost of more than $2,600.
The cabin is clean, lots of storage, and ready to go for the weekend or a great offshore run!! The deck has new snapped carpeting that can be removed in a matter of minutes and stored away below deck when you are fishing and want to keep it clean. All controls are very nice and great condition, power / hydro steering works great, very smooth. Electric / hydro trim works perfectly.
This is not your typical Grady White .... do not let its age fool you... this is a fabulous offshore rig that is ready to fish or cruise!! And with 400 horsepower, it has all the power you need and the reliability to back it up! Will cruise on one engine very easily of course and economical if you operated that way inshore.
We are letting this boat go for whatever the auction brings... we can no longer store it and do not want it to be stored in the water. It has always been trailered and kept out of the water and washed down. Our neighborhood association NOW requires "all boats to be stored under the house" and we cannot do this clearly as large as it is. We have no choice but to sell as it turns out. We have done all of the hard work on it, it can be enjoyed now by a lucky bidder. Feel free to come inspect it prior to the end of the sale, it can be viewed in North Charleston at our indoor warehouse. Once the auction ends, the high bidder wins, so please have your money ready and a way to transport it, whether pickup personally or a shipping co. We are happy to help in any way that we can.
Finally, we have clean South Carolina titles for the vessel and engines. SC doesnt title trailers, but a bill of sale will be issued along with the verification that SC doesnt title and only conveys such via bill of sale.
If you have any questions, please contact us at 843 410 0108
Thanks

Anyway, we added more photos for you to take a peak at. If there is anything anyone wants to see specifically, let me know and we will take them. Its just what you see. It is a great boat and I wish we were able to keep it.
