Todd in NY

I can open them with my laptop as well (not Apple or Mac). Wow, that is a really clean boat!

Knowing what happened could save someone else's life and possibly avoid another tragedy. That's my thinking...

That's strange. I'm able to open each pic with my Android phone. And I don't have any apps downloaded. I haven't tried from my laptop.

I think most of us are curious to know what failed and maybe why it failed. There goes all speculation that it was a bellows.

No problem. They had it parked in front of their house last fall for a few weeks. Now its in the back/side yard. I don't know how long it has sat since the last time it was used.

Matt, there is a 17ft Sea Nymph between your house and mine, walk thru windshield, Evinrude 70 (I think), the owner passed away earlier this year. Don't know their asking price and never looked at the boat up close. Green house just past the cemetery in Champion.

If it doesn't sell before "winter" it'll be winterized and shrink wrapped until spring. We've used it for perch fishing, bass fishing, trout & salmon fishing, and camping in a remote bay on anchor. A very versatile and trailerable boat that I'll miss. My wife liked the boat when my son was around to help with all the launching/docking/loading.

Thanks for the kind words! Good to hear from a former owner. I found some Canadian coins in the hull after I bought it, and wondered if the boat was ever in Canada. If my wife had the strength to handle the boat I would be keeping it for many more years. I don't know when the stove was removed.

Lol, thanks! Give me a few days and I'll get some pics posted

Thanks for the news link!

Missing Fisherman Found Dead I didn't know there was a missing fisherman out of Oswego. But I just read this report that said he was found dead in his cuddy cabin at the bottom of Lake Ontario in 100 FOW. Still under investigation...

Thanks! I was planning on keeping it for many more years, but there's not any quality family time if my wife can't enjoy the boat with me.

Selling my 1987 Bayliner Trophy. Or, if there's enough interest in original OEM Bayliner parts I will consider parting this boat out next year. I'm talking every last part such as the swim platform with ladder, the rocket launcher, the gauges, the cushions in the cuddy and the pilot house, the horn, wiper motor, wheel, prop, covers for the battery and livewell, etc. If I can remove it I will sell it. Or I can sell the whole boat. Parting out the boat will be a last resort, and I'll try to sell the boat complete as long as there is an interested or potential buyer. It's too heavy for my wife to help launch and load, and my son is living out of the area for college. I've owned the boat for 2 years and have taken no shortcuts in maintaining this boat. Professionally maintained by Spicer Marine Basin in Clayton, NY. I'm listing everything I've done to the boat since June of 2016, and I have all maintenance records since I've owned the boat. I have to move to a lighter aluminum boat that my wife can help launch and load. This boat has been kept on its trailer since 2015. We have fished Lake Ontario and Cranberry Lake in NY. I'm all for a test drive with a serious buyer, but keep in mind that I live at least 45 minutes to an hour from the nearest boat launch and I would appreciate some money for gas. The 65 gallon tank is currently topped off with premium non-ethanol gas and Marine 360 Sta-Bil. The last picture shows the boat without the Tite-Lok rod holders and the downrigger mounts, which is how the boat is being sold. I'm asking $5,500 or best reasonable offer. The NADA is $5,970.

Not interested in any trades.

The swim platform is factory mounted and sits maybe 4-6" above the water (never measured it). The water comes up above the EZ Steer bracket. It doesn't cavitate, but it's not below the hull where it should be.

I considered that, but I haven't figured out how to go about it.

I found this picture on my phone. The prop is slightly above the trim tabs, almost dead even with it, so my kicker prop is not in "clean" water. The motor runs great, so it's not the motor lacking in power.

Tiller is ok with me. Pap, I'd have to put the motor back on the boat and take a picture of where the prop is in relation to the bottom of the hull, but it doesn't extend below the hull enough to create any kind of thrust.

What do you mean by "roller"? What year is the motor?

Wanted; 25" Extra Long Shaft Kicker As the title states, I'm looking for a 25" shaft kicker motor. I used a 20" long shaft motor this year and the prop doesn't sit low enough on the transom. My kicker bracket is built into the swim platform. I prefer a 2 stroke in the 10-15 HP range because my kicker bracket is rated for a max weight of 100 pounds. I also prefer a tiller steer motor because I don't want to have to hook up steering controls. A charging system for the kicker would be nice but it's not required because I use manual downriggers. I'm looking now so I can be ready for the 2018 salmon season. Thanks in advance!

Looks like an average day out of Henderson Harbor this summer.
