yamaha exciter dual engine jet boat runs perfect low hours tons of extras

Description

Up for auction is my Twin Engine Yamaha Exciter 220 Jet Boat. Please read discription to the end. I have included lots of details to answer nearly all questions. I have owned it for several years. 16 foot boat with twin 110 HP engines that seats 5 comfortably. We have had 8 on the boat when tubing, waking, skiing, etc with the kids. This boat is crazy fun. You can search the model on youtube to see how awesome these boats are. They run in excess of 50 MPH and will turn on a dime. They are hard to come by for sale. This one has very low hours. It was originally owned by an individual here in Ohio who bought it to put at his lake house in Tennessee. It lived in the garage there, and was only very rarely used. He owned it the majority of its' life. He sold the lake house, and the boat was bought by a co-worker. He kept it in a storage unit the whole time he had it, when not in use. I bought it from him a few years ago, and we have kept it in the garage when not in use. It is in overall very good condition. It has some minor bumps and scuffs from use, but noting that effects its function. The seats are in outstanding condition from being stored inside. There is some staining on the steering wheel and rubber that would likely clean up with some elbow grease. High end Hydro Turf has been installed throughout the boat and rear deck--purple and white to match the boat--and looks awesome and is very spongy on the feet! It makes for a very comfortable area on the rear deck when getting in and out of the boat. These boats are also great for kids. Due to the jet outdrive, it is safe to get in and out, even with the engines running, due to the lack of propellers. One of the great things about this boat is that it has depreciated as much as it ever will. You can use it for years, and get your money back on resale! Just take good care of it! They are actually appreciating because they are hard to find for sale. People don't get rid of them.
The boat has an active Ohio Watercraft Registration good through March 1, 2019. It was just renewed this spring, and we most recently had the boat out last week---parked outside of Riverbend Concert Arena in Cincinnati listening to the Gwen Stefani concert. Both engines start immeditely, run excellent, and have excellent power. This boat is FAST! It is way more fun than a jet ski(s). I've had both. It also allows you to park and chill with your friends, which is not really an option with Jet Skis. The engines are completely seperate systems, with dual batteries, starters, seperate keys, etc. One of the reasons I bought the boat is that if you ever had an engine problem, you always have another engine and won't be stranded. I have NEVER had any problem at all with either engine. There are also separate on/off switches for the gas tanks, and both have reserve tanks.
The front and rear lights work. The blower and bilge pump work. The tachs (one for each engine) and speedometer work. The gas gauge can be a little sketchy. I'm not always sure it is reading exactly accurate. It may be, but I'm always skeptical. We always just fill it up when we head out, and we've never had a problem. The dash horn does not work. Never has since I've owned it, not sure why. We just keep a marine air horn on the boat. It's new and never opened. It suffices for inspections, etc. It is included wth the sale.
The only reason we are selling is because we are significantly downsizing. I currently have garage space for 7 cars. That is going away with the sell of our current home. So, the boat has to go. To that end, I am includng a ton of supplies and extras with the boat (easily over $1000 worth of extras, probably $2000 worth). Included with the boat will be a brand new JVC AM/FM CD player with blue tooth and auxillary jack. Also included is a brand new Boss waterproof case and mount for the stereo. I bought them both recently but hadn't had time to install them, and then we decided to move. Two high end composite slalom skis are included, that can also be combined to form one set of skis. They are matched in size. A set of kids training skis, that are attached by small chains to keep the kids feet together while learning, are also included. An awesome wake board is included, as well as a brand new wake rope(never opened) and an additional tubing/sking rope. Five high end Stearns Life Jackets are included in a variety of sizes. Some are still new with the tags. Three additional 'old school' orange life jackets, also new, are also included-good when extra friends come along so everyone on board has a lifejacket if stopped :) There is also a throw flotation cushion that is always nice to have on board in case someone in the water needs it that is included. Several collapsable oars are included, as well as bumpers, etc. An anchor is also included, as well as a spare drain plug. The orignial tool kit is included, as well as a Factory numbers matching kit that matches the boat colors in case you need to change the registration number, etc. The hose adapter, to allow you to start either engine on dry land with the use of a garden hose, is also included. Both engines start immediately with the use of the hose on land. The original Yamaha trailer is included. The tires are great, and I also have the factory spare tire and wheel. In addition, I have the original mauals (owners, service, etc) which are electronic and awesome to use. I have two sets of keys, on floaties. The boat has storage bins in the front and under the center walk path. I fire extinguisher is included and strapped in the front storage. There is also a built in ice chest with lid and a drain.
This is a great opportunity to get a rare, hard to find twin jet engine boat that runs perfectly, has low hours, and has always been garage kept. All you have to do is get in and go. Everything you need for instant fun is included. You don't need to spend an additional dollar, regardless of your preference for fun. The boat shows well, and we always get complements everywhere we go, even on the trailer at the gas station!
I just installed two new batteries earlier this month. They were from O'Reilly's Auto Parts. I have the receipts for both, which were sold to 'cash', and the receipts will be included with the sale. They have a years' warranty for free replacement which will transfer to the purchaser.
I am happy to answer any questions, either through ebay messaging or you can call or text me. I have bought and sold several high end items on ebay, including several classic cars. Lets just say in excess of 50K for single purchases. Things are not always exactly as discribed, and sometimes pictures can be a little misleading. I discribe my items accurately. Please look at all pictures closely and ask any and all questions. I will answer everything promptly and honestly no problem. I tried to attach a video walk around of the boat and trailer but it was too large and wouldn't load. I could send it to you if you would like. Also, as I said there are plenty of videos on youtube of the model. Just search Yamaha Exciter Jet Boat.
The boat is for sale locally, and I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. I encourage anyone who is interested to come and see the boat in person. Nothing replaces looking over something in person. I will work around your schedule to show you the boat. If you were to fly in to see it, I will pick you up at the airport and return you to the airport. Cincinnati airport code is CVG.
I will accept cash in person and wire transfer of funds, as well as paypal for the deposit. $500 deposit is due within 48 hours of auction end, with payment in full within 7 days. The boat must be paid for in full before it leaves my premises--whether picking up, shipping, or having delivered. I willing to work with your shipper to have the boat shipped anywhere in the continental US, at your cost and arrangement. Ebay provides links to several shippers with a good reputation. I have shipped several autos cross country, as buyer and seller. If you plan to ship the boat, do your research BEFORE bidding, not after winning. I am POSSIBLY willing to deliver the boat, depending on your location, for a fee. If you are considering this, it must be discussed with me PRIOR to bidding, as I cannot guarentee the ability to deliver, or the cost, without discussing it with you. Also, if you are considering having it delivered, the cost of delivery is due prior to my bringing it to you. I am willing to store the boat indoors for you for a period of time for free, however this must be discussed BEFORE bidding and auction end, and payment in full would still be due as detailed above.
Hopefully that covers most everything. I try to be very descriptive and give as much information as possible. That said, feel free to email me, call or text me anytime with any questions. I am in Cincinnati, Ohio 45243 in the Eastern Time Zone.
Thanks for reading everything. Happy Bidding. The new owner of this boat will LOVE IT!
