BOAT DETAILS
Hull #1747 is in
excellent condition. The bottom was replaced in 2009 by Dannenberg
Boatworks of Filer City, Michigan using 3M 5200. The original Chrysler
ACE 6 cylinder engine was rebuilt in 2009 by CD's engine service of
Hudsonville, Michigan. A new stainless steel fuel tank was installed in
2009, as well. A custom canvas cover to the waterline is included as
well as the custom TrailMaster single axle trailer.
COMMENTS
This beautiful, rare boat
runs flawlessly and is used regularly during the summer months, always
stored inside on the trailer. It's fun, easy to run and maintain.
