posting for a friend... 1987 STARCRAFT ISLANDER 22.5 Cuddy Cabin with a 150HP Mercury Black Max 2-Stroke outboard on a single axle Shorelander trailer. This boat has a spacious cabin and comfortably sleeps two. All of the interior cushions are in excellent condition and the outside seat cushions are new and were custom made. The boat has an incredible custom made bimini with full front and side drops that can be added or removed in various configurations. The bimini and drops are also in excellent condition and in the worst weather, it is a dry boat. It also comes with a Lowrance LCX-15 mt Fish finder/GPS unit, AM/FM cassette stereo with speakers inside and outside of the cabin and a VHF radio/antenna. The boat features lockable rod racks, a swim platform, plenty of storage and some rod holders. The boat and the motor have low hours for the age. Both have been well kept, and must be seen to appreciate. The motor runs great and the boat handles like a dream on the water. I have owned this boat for 10 years and have only used it in fresh water. I purchased it in the Great Lakes region by Niagara fall’s and have primarily used it on Lake Ontario two weeks out of the year. The Lowrance fish finder/GPS also contains many saved way points (Salmon) in the Oswego area on Lake Ontario. Downriggers and kicker motor pictured not included. Asking $4800.00 or best offer. I can be reached (Kurt) @ 973-255-0054 in the afternoons/ evenings and weekends. Location is Northern N.J. (Vernon). Pick up and cash only.
i am sure you can ski off it, tube etc. but i will ask if he took his kids skiing.
yeah the HT would be nice,..but i guess i will have to buy the fisherman's top with enclosure.
My friends friend is selling his 20 ft Trophy WA with a 150 merc offshore outboard… He is moving to California so he needs to sell before he leaves.
So I am pretty confident the boat /engine have no serious issues…he says it runs flawless and loves the boat. Its light so it’s easy to tow and should work well in both salt and freshwater. If I get it I would like to add a HT kicker 9.9 and 4 electric riggers. I would also have to purchase the fisherman top and side curtains.
Not sure of exact year and price yet.
If anyone here has this boat all rigged up I would like to see some pics.
Thanks tony
If you keep a glass boat docked in fresh water does it need to be bottom painted? If so, how often does it need to be painted? Also what about aluminum boats?
thanks tony
I used the anglers pal with ball and socket...worked great and you can have the rods anyway you chose..just make sure you really crank down on them so they don't spin..when done fishing you can just lie them flat to gunnels...I did keep a safety line on my wire dipsy rods just in case..but never had an issue
