2006 Maxum 1800 SR3 bowrider 141 hours, Sea Ray, Bayliner, Stingray, Skiff, NR

Description

You are viewing a 2006 Maxum 1800 SR3 bowrider with a mere 141 hours. I am the second owner of this low-hour vessel. The first owners primarily used this boat on Jordan Lake, NC. They used the boat for tubing and skiing. We have used this boat on Jordan Lake, NC and White Lake, NC. It is currently and has always been a pleasure / cruising vessel. Last fall, in addition to the annual service (fluids changed, filters changed, & winterized), the starter was replaced as well as the battery.During the off season, this boat has been stored indoors and fuel stabilizer was added and a battery tender was used . During boating season, it was usually housed under a shelter. After each outing, the boat, life jackets, & tubes were washed and properly stored. During service, it was washed again and waxed. All services have been completed by a certified dealer.This boat has nice curves and appealing lines, not to mention a very much sought after extended swim platform. Imagine sitting on the extended swim platform with your legs dangling in the cool water as you reach into the integrated cooler and grab something cold to drink while listening to your favorite tunes on the radio or phone with the bimini top up. How cool would that be? The bimini top is still in very good condition. No worries about the kids jumping off the rear of the boat. The extended swim platform covers the outdrive. This is a safety feature you shouldn't be without. The interior design of the boat lends itself to style and comfort for you and your family and/or friends. The driver's seat is a solo bolster seat. You can sit in the seat with the bolster down while chatting with some friends or listening to some tunes. Flip up the bolster (which gives you about a 6 inch lift) when you need to be more vigilant, like getting on plane, tubing, loading / unloading, or docking. The passenger seat is a lounge seat. It can recline into a sunpad. The rear seats have padded arm rests and cup holders. Youcan also raise the two rear seats to make a sunpad. If catching some rays is what you prefer, you can stretch out on the sunpad (made from the rear seats) or sprawl out on the lounge seat/sunpad. The seating is spacious, with room for 8 passengers and there are lots of cup holders from the front to the rear. All lights, gauges, and instruments work properly. The depth finder will alert you when the water is too shallow. The boat has lots of storage areas from the bow to the stern. Under the front seat are storage areas. There is a huge storage area in the center of the boat. More storage areas are located between the seats and the interior walls--great for cell phones and other sensitive devices. In the rear there are storage areas under the two rear seats. All the coast guard equipment--throw cushion, flare gun, air horn, & fire extinguisher is fairly new. The docking buoys are in good condition. I have included an anchor and anchor rope which was purchased last year. Also, I am including a pair of skis and two tubes. The first tube is a chariot style and it is for one or two people. It can be ridden while sitting or kneeling and it is almost impossible to overturn (great for beginners). The other is a round disk tube which can be used by one, two, or three people; it is probably better suited for the intermediate or more advanced tuber. I am also including thetow-ball which helps keep the tow line out of the water. No more letting go of the handles to wipe the water from your eyes. This is a must-have item. Also, I will include sometow ropes andsome nice life jackets.This boat comes with the 4.3 liter TKS mercruiser V6 engine which allows you to get on plane quickly. You actually get the best of both worlds. You get the power to pull up skiers or multiple tubes and the fuel economy of the smaller engine.It doesn't matter whether you are new to boating or you are experienced, you'll appreciate how economical this boat is to operate . It has the smaller fuel tank (11 - 20 gallons). I can easily boat the whole weekend off one tank of fuel. This boat is also loaded with creature comforts (radio, bimini top, extended swim platform, 4.3 liter mercruiser engine, flexible seating, & cup holders galore, etc.). This boat is easy to navigate. It is an 18 footer with the 2 foot extended swim platform, thus making it 20'. You have the stability of the bigger boats, yet it is small enough to load and unload by yourself. Again, the design of this boat is very user-friendly. The trailer is in very good condition and it has the break away tongue with brakes. The rims are galvanized and the tires are in good shape. The spare is new. The trailer comes with locks for the spare tire and the 2"coupler. As you can see, you aren't just purchasing a boat. You are getting a complete package deal--boat, motor, trailer, & tons of accessories. You can literally start boating today! Keep in mind, I am not selling a new boat, and there are a few minor flaws. The graphics on the port side has some minor peeling, the rear seat starboard side could use some TLC, & one of the speakers may need to be replaced. The pictures speak volumes of the condition of this low hour vessel. I have described this boat, motor, & trailer to the best of my ability. I've disclosed a few flaws and a whole bunch of positives. You will not be disappointed in the boat, motor, or trailer. Having said that, there are no warranties written, expressed or implied. I havetitles in handfree and clear of any liens for the boat and trailer.I am not a dealer and I do not offer any type of financing. Therefore, if you bid on this item, please have your funds in place. I will accept PayPal for the deposit only. This boat will remain onsite until funds clear my bank. Non-paying winners will be reported to ebay. There are no free rides. Serious inquiries only. You may view this boat by appointment only. Recent lake tests indicate the boat is ready.
