1975 skiff craft skiffcraft 26 x260 open classic wooden boat
Description
Beautiful boat. Bought it to completely restore, but I don't have enough time for it. This beauty starts and runs just fine. The compression test was done by a local marine mechanic and it is good. Boat has a freshly painted hull (couple of dings already - easy fix), brand new mahogany deck, rebuilt carburetor. There are some minor things that need to be done in order to have it fully restored. The seats are still in good condition, but they do have some edge cracks, they are still original. The floor has few vinyl rips, and the windshield could use new set of glass seals. The drive works well, but it will need a new tiny find that mounts with a long screw above the propeller. Some of the electrical and hydraulics may need to be checked. I never had to use any of them on the water (like lighting, etc). You can either buy this boat to finish what I started (fully restore it) or but it and use it as is. It is definitely head turner in the Great Lakes area. Asking $14000 or best offer. Comes with a brand new trailer that is shown on photos. I also have a brand new cover for it that goes over the whole new deck and rails. Total amount that I spent in improvements last season alone is $13000 ($7000 new mahogany deck -locally done by Firehouse Boatworks, $3700 new trailer, $1800 new cover - locally done by Canvas Innovations, $500 carburetor rebuilt), I have all the bills available for anyone to review if needed.
Bidder/winner of this boat understands that the above boat is sold in “as is” with no guarantees or warranties, either expressed or implied, for the boat.
Thanks for looking!
Please feel free to contact me (send eBay message) if you would like to see the boat. It has been pulled out of winter storage already.
