Boat Summary
$8,000 (USD)
Boat ID: 39222

This boat was purchased in West Seneca, N.Y. in 1982. Boat had been restored prior to 1982 with new upholstery. Original Hercules B engine was replaced with a Hercules K engine during this previous restoration. The hull number is 57254. The boat was last in the water in 1986 and sealed adequately with a caulked bottom. The boat has been stored in an unheated garage in Colorado since 1986. The boat was damaged by hail in 1986 and needs a new deck. Sale of boat will include approximately 75 board feet of African mahogany [Sapele] for deck replacement. All chrome and stainless trim has been removed for anticipated deck replacement. The boat hull will need to be stripped, stained and varnished. Two hull boards about 6 feet long on the front port side will need to be replaced due to inadequate repairs during original restoration. The transom was replaced with a one piece mahogany board in 1986 but has cracked across the width of the boat over the many years. It will require replacement. These are shown in the photos. The Fuel was siphoned from original tank when boat was placed in storage in 1986. The engine cylinders were protected by placing 2 oz of motor oil in each cylinder and then turning the engine over with the starter to distribute the oil to the cylinders and rings. The engine has been in storage in the boat since 1986. All the chrome and stainless trim is included with the exception of the rear lifting ring which is currently lost. Front navigation light is included, but is not shown in the pictures. The engine number is K23094. A used 10 inch high, 6 inches diameter, dash control Ivolite spotlight is available for $300, but will need some work to be operational. The original boat cover, which is canvas, is included, but was damaged during the hail storm.
