This is a classic inboard competition ski boat in very good original condition. It was handed down to me by my folks who needed the extra boathouse slip at their place in the adirondacks for a mahogany that they recently restored. They bought it many years ago from an engineer friend who cared for it very well. It has always been professionally serviced and maintained. It was basically used 5-10 times each summer, then put up for winter storage. I really hate to part with it, but I needed something bigger, so I’ve replaced it with a larger boat and no longer have the room for it.
Last year, I had the boat/engine completely checked out and verified to be in good running condition by a good inboard marine mechanic that I use. He installed a marine starter and alternator. He also rebuilt the Rochester QuadraJet carburetor, tuned up the engine. The entire boat professionally re-wired 6 years ago to include all new guages. It includes new Eagle custom trailer made to fit boat with all options including spare tire which I purchased when I took it out of my folks boat house up north.
This boat is very sharp and original with just the wear that you would expect from a moderate amount of careful adult use. I get lots of compliments and inquiries every time I launch it.
Its hard to explain just how cool that big GM inboard with the Rochester Quad carb sounds as that boat break up onto a plane on a quiet sunny morning out on the lake. If you’re a Correct Craft owner - you can relate.
If your truly interested, drop me a mail note at pars@rpa.net. I do need to sell it fairly soon.
