Selling Maritime Skiff 1890

[Blackjack]

She's been great but she needs a new home to make room for the new ride:

- 2000 Maritime Skiff 1890 Hull (bought new 6/01)
- 2004 90 hp Etec engine with about 250 hrs
- 2000 Calkins Trailer in good shape
- Garmin 176 GPS Nav
- Humminbird fishfinder
- Standard Horizon VHF radio
- 32" center console with leaning post
- All cushions and canvas
- 4 Bluewater flyrod holders, 5 Spin rod holders

This has been a great boat - perfect for Boston Harbor or Cape flyfishing. The Etec has been excellent - a very reliable replacement for original Evinrude 4 stroke. All maintenance done by 3A Marine - all records available.

Asking $15,750

Pics will be available once it stops raining outside...

C'mon John. Whats the new ride? Don't leave me hanging. BTW, great boat. I was in one awhile back and was pumped by how seaworthy it is. Nice ride.

Thanks Frank -

New ride is Hydra Sport 22' Vector w/225 Etec, 4kw radar and Raymarine C80 electo's...can't wait! I'm going to keep it on a trailer and I intend to continue my Friday commutes to work in same, so you are always welcome. You know how bad it sucks to be on the commuter boat and see busting fish!

Looks great, John! I think you priced it too low... (#$119) Won't last long! --126-3-

Wow, cherry condition. I only wish my boat was that clean.

Agree with Frank they're nice stable rides and great all 'round boats.

[Frankie G]

Ahhh. Thinking of heading offshore a bit are we? Sounds like a sweet new ride. BTW, your boat is spotless. You use straight bleach on it? Sure it won't last for long. See you on the boat.

Thanks guys - I use Soft Scrub on the deck and nothing but elbow grease and good wax on the hull! With weather like today I can't wait to get out there...

Pics of livewell to follow this weekend...

[Blackjack]

Here it is - works like a charm. Cost around $200 new, I think. Included with my MS 1890.

[Frankie G]

I have the exact same livewell....thing works like a dream. We put a bunch of macs in there (when they were still around) and they lasted thorugh the day in good shape...I think it has to do with the rounded tank and color. Doesn't stress the bait out too much before being inhaled by a 30-40" something.

Damn CB! You told me that was your portable head? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v249/HouseHead/Avatars%20and%20Smilies/barf1.gif

[Blackjack]

Believe me, I've been tempted to use it more than once when I've been in the middle of the Haba. Good thing I had your Fly Line Tamer on my boat to use at the time...

[Too Fly]

I know, which is why I swapped mine for yours when you had your back turned. :-%

Dirt bags...I wish I could send some sort of electronic spike to blow up their computer in whatever sh*t hole they are living in.

[Blackjack]

Bump - if no-one grabs her soon she is going to a dealer where she'll be marked up a bit.

[Blackjack]

SOLD, to the man from Maine (I think - check hasn't been cleared yet). Thanks to everyone for their props...
