I cured my case of 4'itis, so the Alumaweld needs to find a new home. I've owned the boat for 6 years and killed fish from the CR buoy to Merwin in it.

Oh, and it's fishy.

Both engines run flawlessly and have newer water pump impellers. I change the oil every 50 hours or so, and I have spare filters for everything. I've always completely flushed everything after exposure to salt. The boat has always been stored indoors or at least under complete cover.

I wouldn't hesitate to take this boat anywhere. I have never had an issue with the engines, electrical, or fuel system on the boat. The 18* hull rides VERY nice for it's size, and it's also surprisingly stable. I believe they called this their "Buoy 10 special" when they made it, it handles the estuary and near shore with ease. There is no delta pad and the boat will not accept a jet drive. With the 40 gallon tank, you have the range to go just about anywhere. I have a couple stainless props as noted above, with the 14" it has no problem getting 4 fat guys moving. The boat tops out from 38-43mph depending on prop and load, but is most efficient at 42-4400 rpm in the mid to upper 20s. The absolute most I've had this thing weigh with a tank of fuel and a bunch of gear is 4000lbs with the trailer.

The only real issue the boat has is the front two seats need to be re-upholstered, but they are perfectly functional. I can get that done or the new owner can.
