I am selling my 21' Tide runner, it is a great boat, built like a tank, and handles rough water like a much larger boat. I have fished it almost exclusively out of Ilwaco making many Columbia River bar crossings. With that being said I have maintained this boat with mine as well as my guests lives in mind, this is the reason for electronics redundancy, good antenna, good thru hulls and hoses, heavy wipers, etc. I would not be willing to cross the bar and run offshore if I did not have 100% confidence in my boat.
It has a 1999 225 Optimax with approximately 600 hours, it is a very efficient engine, 24 knot cruise at about 6-7 GPH depending on sea state. It is mounted to a custom Armstrong offshore bracket.
She has a 94 gallon fuel tank, VHF with 50 mile high end antenna and second backup antenna, Raymarine E80 display, Raymarine radar (24 mile), 3d chart card, sonar module, (I have the electronics redundant, 2 GPS antennas, two transducers, two sonar modules). Backup Raymarine display networked to the rest. Dual bank marine battery charger (two deep cycles on one bank (group 24 & 27) and 1000CCA starting on the other.) Cabin has stove, porta potti, sleeps 2 in v berth, lots of storage, feels like a MUCH larger boat.
Scotty mounts and plugs, large fish box, below waterline thru hulls just replaced, Honda 15HP electric start kicker. Net holders, pole holders, upgraded very heavy duty windshield wiper motors, good bottom paint.
Trailer is an EZ Loader (1987), it is the original trailer but in decent shape, it is solid and has good tires.
I have bought a larger boat and am ready to sell, I hate to sell because the strength and craftsmanship are great but it's time to move on.
This boat will get you on the fishing grounds at an affordable price. These boats are few and far between, they did not make many of them and were considered the best when made locally in Gig Harbor - Hand laid fiberglass, hull is at least a 1/2" thick, transom is 3 1/2" thick.
It is a fishing boat and appears to be, it is not perfect but is in good condition and has caught a lot of fish. Always ran Mercury Opti oil along with quickleen in every other tank and has been well maintained, tuneup, water pump, belts, and tbi cleaning done 50 hours ago. It has a custom powertech stainless 4 blade prop with 50 hours use put on last year that cost me $600.00.
