This is the perfect fishing boat and I'm sure it's enjoyed the sport for quite a while. If I could pick up one like this locally for 3-5k I'd buy it as just the same. The hardest part of getting to your fishing spot is getting there quickly and the 2nd hardest part is keeping the smell and stains away.
Number nine was the dead give away.
"""9. Factory carpet for exterior deck that I have never used and is in near new condition."""
If this was my fishin puppy I'd of never put the carpet in it either.

See ya,
Kelly

Judging from the color of the carpet in the cabin I can't imagine it doesn't smell awful.

External steering and Hi-Perf Hing pins....

Very weird bottom paint. It's only protecting the part of the hull that would be wet when it's on plane. When it's just sitting, there's a lot of non bottom painted hull that would be wet.

You could call me a Bubba 'cause I guess it's true.
I wish this seller was in SE Texas or the Louisiana gulf coast.
For me this is the perfect low budget offshore fishing boat.
With a little Honda generator and a pin hinged plywood cut out for the entrance to the salon you could fasten a small window unit AC to cool the salon overnight. With it's sink it'll probably carry maybe 10 to 20 gallons of fresh water for hand washing and a sponge bath before retiring for the evening and with 100 ft of anchor line we could anchor off in 9 out of 10 of my favorite fishing spots without drifting. The best part is there's plenty of room for some large icechests in the cockpit with room left to fish around them.
Plus none of my bud's have a Formula sport cruiser for their fishin' boats, LOL!!!

Poor folks have poor ways, and although the new CC's with the long cigarette style hulls fish great, few have a cuddy cabin worthy of overnighting in.

See ya,
Kelly

Nice thick bead of caulk around the transom assembly. I like how much trash is everywhere in the pictures.
