Boats on Used Victoria and Other Areas

It's not hard to add 2 more seats in that Trophy,lots of guides use them.
adding seats is one thing.. without a big extension to the top over the deck area? they sit outside. any wave wash over runs down the walk around and dumps on them in the rear deck. i dont think i will own another walk around unless designed for everyone to be in under the stock top.

They are an inefficient hull with not much seating. It has the seating and deck space of a 2470 but gets 1.5mpg and has a stand up head. I agree, not a good design for most here.
 
Not many small fishing boats here, but this one is worth a look:


My brother owns an old Gregor and it is built like an absolute tank. These are welded boats and pretty heavy duty. If it checks out, this a smoking deal with the motor and trailer.
 
I’m surprised there hasn’t been a stampede to snatch up this rig:

 
@Sharphooks is this vintage of avon any good?

I couldn’t find the Nanaimo listing…maybe someone grabbed it? There’s an Avon in Comox that the guy just wants out of his yard. Anyone with some hypalon patch material and some 2-part glue (2 part is important !!) could turn that into a very nice inflatable…I’d buy it in a heart-beat if it were an easier drive for me

Could you send me the details? I’ll be up this weekend helping my parents downsize and will hopefully have an empty pickup truck coming home!
 

The only weak link is no oar locks though I think originally there were fitting in those wood blocks held in place by strips of hypalon

I never get worried when I see patches on an Avon as long as they were professionally applied. If they weren’t, get a heat gun or a hair-drier with a paint scraper and pull them off, sand off the old glue, then re-apply new patches. The key is getting 2-part glue specifically made for Orca Pennel (formerly known as hypalon)….I tried resurrecting an old Avon that someone found beat up on a beach and learned the hard way that normal hypalon glue out of a tube (without the catalyst) is just not strong enough for any kind of major patch work

This is what you’d want:
