Boats on Used Victoria and Other Areas

I have talked to that guy a couple times. He hated the way that boat rode. He's owned many boats and says that's the worst riding one of them all.

Yeah that's kind of the feeling I got when I talked to him. Only I was considering buying it, so he wasn't nearly as honest with me.

Kinda remember that. Crazy how some people paying moorage relist and relist at basically the same price.

That’s not the same boat. The one at Burrard for $124k was a freshwater submersion boat with Yanmar diesels.

You can see it listed in this thread:
https://sportfishingbc.com/threads/...a-and-other-areas.67127/page-465#post-1064029

The one currently listed for sale is very clean - it is at Oak Bay Marina near the entrance/breakwater. The engines look pristine - and one thing I really like about it is that the entire engine (including the full trim ram assembly) sits completely out of the water.

My boat is a few slips away and I have been walking by this one drooling over it for a couple of years.

Yeah, when my buddy had his whaler moored there I drooled over it as well.

i think this was my neighbours boat, after he got it they did a full retrofit from a partial sinking. totally a fuel pig.

Yeah, I don't imagine they have the "Freeman" cat efficiency with all that cabin and flybridge. It's more of a ten of millionaires boat who doesn't care or a gulf islander boat? I'd imagine less than 1mpg.

So not the 6-8mpg this bad boy offers?

Very nice Ironwood with new 115 twins. I posted this probably 6 months ago. I guess he was trying to sell at the end of season, took it off over the winter and is now trying again.

If I was in the market for an offshore/near-shore centre console, this would be the one I'd go for. I think its great value (subject to inspection) - but we'll see what the market will bear.

I really love the simplicity of this setup and expect we could all learn a lot about quality boat construction crawling around on this thing. The only thing you could really compare this to is a 22' Bridgeview Centre Console - or maybe a Walker CC - both of which are going to be a lot more than this. Definitely worth the ask, and likely worth spending a bit of cash to bring it up to current standard.

I'm curious peoples thoughts, I am looking at a 2859 Bayliner with a Yanmar and B3. Nice rig but he says when its loaded it doesn't plane. Sips fuel at 9knts.
Been for sale for a year ( bad location), I would want to keep it for 3-5 years.
Wondering what the chance of reselling down the road with a non-planning boat would be??

That would be a jigging machine...
 
I’d pass personally. Boats that don’t do what they are designed to do aren’t in demand. If you want a sail boat or a tug style boat you shop for one not a bayliner, the exception is the old style that one member poded. In this environment I would have to steal a boat like that. Even that seasport is sitting at 40k
