25 convincor models?

CAP071 · 02-10-2002, 08:51 AM

Ok in 1998 how many convincor models did checkmate produce? I have a 1998- 25 checkmate but I keep being asked what 1 is it ? I thought it was a 25'9 convincor, but now some guy wants to look at it because I have it for sale, but he says he needs to know exactly what size it is? Is there a major diff. in these models? I have pictures if that helps?

It's a 1998- 25'9 454/300 H.P. convincor with 72 fresh water hours. trailer included. has the usual options S/S tips dual ram trim tabs with digital indicators, snap carpets, drop bolsters, dual battery, with switch, am/fm/cass potta potti un-used

gauge bezels. I have an extended warranty for it from Q-guard until 2004! Looking to get around $32K loan pay-off. Have pictures on request.

You should have an oval logo on the side.Mine is a 98 Convincor 253 and as far as I know the 259 is a 99 model.

Beam on 259 is 8'7" and plenty of room between bolster seats,,253 is 8'3" and much tighter between bolsters. Both are excellent powerboats..

in 1998. anniversary edition.dealer told him checkmate still had the old hull mold and built a few.boat looks like a early 90's
convincor with modern grafics.it is about
a foot narrower than my 97 253.---joe

This is good information. Does anyone know the "actual" beam dimension on the 251?

duster340 · 02-12-2002, 06:52 PM

my checkmate catalog from the early 90's
shows beam on a 251 is 89".

The 98 251 is the same as the early 90 251,89 inch beam.

My 1989 brochure(sp?) says 90" beam for the 251 Convincor GTX.
