I have to vouch for Trigger, I know the boat, and have been on the boat a few times. The boat's owner is very meticulous about everything, it will be as close to a new boat as you can get. It's in grade A shape.

I had Trigger do the decals on my boat a couple of weeks ago. I can speak to the fact that he is meticulous, and a straight shooter.
I was checking out his boat while I was at his shop. It was stored inside in a large shop and looked pretty much brand new, and immaculate.



Boats run on Gas, not Thanks!

It is gently used. I'm a bit of a maniac for taking care of my things. You're supposed to change the oil after every 2 hours of operation aren't you?

I don't want to sell her, but I lamentably need to in order buy an expensive piece of equipment for my business. I also need the space for that piece of equipment. I've wrestled with this for a long time, and I have no other option.

I am open to offers, but all things considered, the value is there.

And hey......this boat catches fish:

Cheers.

Geez, I thought I was anal about keeping my stuff in good repair.
Some one is going to get a sweet rig.

Too bad about having to let her go.....
Good luck
Dan.

For interest sake what performance do you get from that motor. Speed and gas usage. I looked at one a few years back . Nice setup. Thanks Willyd

The engine runs like a top. I generally just run at about 3800 - 4200 rpm to my fishing spot, and then let it idle for a minute or two before shutting it off. I don't know what the fuel consumption numbers are, but it's very thrifty and a dramatic reduction from the old 115 2-stroke that came with the boat. Top speed is about 45 mph on the GPS, but I never go there, as it's not a race.

The 90/115/140 Johnson engines are SUZUKI engines, right down to the last bolt. They bought them from SUZUKI, painted them white, and put their own decals on. I guess they figured that they couldn't compete with the efforts of SUZUKI to build a superior engine.

Ok, here we go. Here's two shots of the cuddy with all cushions in:

...and here's subsequent shots of the cushions removed in stages. I used it with the first one removed:

There's a nice storage hole right up front:

...and good sized storage bays on both sides:

Interior light, and custom made chart/document holder (stainless):

Oh, and here's a shot with the rear seats in, and that custom made bait table (stainless & teflon):

Very nice. Thanks.

That boat is in great shape and I will vouch for the motor. I had the same one on my harbercraft and it is bullet proof and economical.
