Next here is a quick back historyon this boat, I bought it earlier this spring intending to make it my fishing boat but my plans changed and I decided to restore another fishing boat I have and I'm currently using that one. So this one has been sitting in my driveway for the past few months. I purchased it from a Lady who's husband passed away last year.
Let me tell you what I know about it.
Its in really good shape on top cosmetically with just a couple small spots that show any wear. one little spot near the steering wheel there is a quarter sized hole in the upholstery. There is a small chip out of the fiberglass near one of the lids on the rear deck, but you wouldn't know its there unless someone pointed it out. The seats and the floors I was told were replaced last year, making them like new and very plush. The decking in the front and rear is all fiberglass and is perfectly solid and like new still. The center window for the windshield is missing. Before I forget the little plastic cover over the front controls is broken and should be replaced(picture shown)
Lets discuss the exterior of the boat, it could use a good buffing on the top, it has that cool glitter paint job but would really pop with some buffing and wax. I noticed under the hull that towards the rear on both sides and the back that some of the gelcoat has peeled off. It doesn't look like water will penetrate into the hull since there is another layer of fiberglass underneath with the grey glitter also but just wanted to make sure it was mentioned. There are also a couple other spots on the hull that may need a small repair of fiberglass, but I am not an expert on these things(see pictures).
Now for the electronics, the trolling motor works perfectly, and the battery that runs it still seems to have juice although I cant vouch for its quality. The starting battery is brand new. The Hummingbird depth finder works perfectly. All of the guages appear to work properly, although I have not had the boat in the water to verify. The front and rear live well pumps appear to turn on and run. The rear bilge pump appears to run. There is a small problem with one of the wires or switches for one of the bilge pumps, when the main fuse is installed it runs all the time, I have not had a chance to trace it down, but it shouldn't be a big deal. I just pull the fuse out when not in use.
The trailer is a 1987 Holiday Trail Boat Trailer. I put brand new wheels and tires on the trailer because the old wheels had some dry rot. I will also included the old tires and wheels if you want them for spares, there is also a spare on the trailer. I will mention that when I replaced the tires I spun the hubs by hand and it is of my opinion that it will need new bearings on both sides. I did not tow it very far myself, but I have since greased up the bearings. If you plan on towing a long distance it would be recommended to change the bearings out before making the trip. I can help you with this if you choose to buy the new bearing parts. The tail lights all work, but if I remember correctly there might be a side orange marker not working but I think it was just the bulb when I inspected them.
From the serial number on the engine I believe it to be a 1985 model. I have several video's one of the compression test on the motor and the other of the motor running. The motor seems to run out great, there is lower compression in a couple of the cylinders but it doesn't seem to effect the performance, but wanted potential buyers to be aware. The motor is equipped with a gorgeous stainless steel propeller and pumps water perfectly. It is oil injected you just add oil to a tank inside the boat and it injects it automatically. I also has power trim and tilt.
Now for the paperwork, I have a Title for the Boat and a Title for the Trailer that have been signed over by the previous owner, and are ready for transfer to the new owner.
There is a rear removable light stick for night operation, however I am missing the front red/green marker light stick. They are about $35 for a replacement.
I have tried to convey everything I know about the boat to the best of my ability, however I am only human and there may be things that I have left out, so please inspect all the pictures and let me know if you have any questions before bidding.
With all that being said the boat will be sold as is where is so once you buy it, its yours no if &'s or buts. I can water test it on a hose for you but there are no lakes nearby currently that are open due to the flooding to test it out so you will be buying it that way just to be clear.
If you are a new ebay bidder with less than 5 positive feedback, send me a quick note to say who you are and where your from so I know your legit, otherwise I'll have to cancel your bid since I've been burned by fake bots in the past, and it costs good money to list items on ebay these days.
I do reserve the right to end this auction at any time for any reason I deem necessary.
Sorry such a long description just like to be as thorough as possible for my buyers.Any questions let me know.ThanksJoe
