WTB: 17' Bass Boat w/4 stroke Yamaha

Post by 5-20 »

Looking for a clean and well kept 2000 and up 17' glass bass boat that has a 4 stroke Yamaha on it. Preferably a 60-115 hp motor.

I have a small garage and I would be able to fit a 17' boat in there with a swing-away tongue, maybe even a 18' depending on the model.

Preferred: Triton, Skeeter, Ranger or Champion models.

Might consider an aluminum rig like a G3 but that's not really at the top of my list right now.

I have a real nice boat. Very clean. 17' Skeeter SS140. Boat is a '95 but professionally restored by Anglers Marine. New carpet and upholstery. Garaged. Holds 8' rods in the locker no problem.

Motor is a 2005 Mercury Optimax with just over 100 hours. Runs perfect.

HDS8 on console with LCX38 on bow (networked). New batteries. Cover. On board charger. Swing away tongue. I can fish all day and be hard-pressed to burn 3 gallons of gas. Tow it with a 4 cyl Toyota. Fits in my garage straight in with the swing away and motor down.

Only negatives are: 1. I don't think its propped very good. It cruises 35-45 real nice and has a top speed right at 50 mph but still has throttle left at max rpm. 2. I put new livewell pumps in and they're too big and will fill faster than the overflow can let the water out if you're not paying attention.

$7,700
