Details about the boat.

Its a 1994 Starcraft 1709 fish and ski.

The good:

It came with a working bilge pump, working livewell, functioning trolling motor, functioning outboard, functioning trailer, functioning lights, a good pair of batteries, a solid hull, a solid transom, anchors, those things you put between the boat and the dock to keep the boat from getting all beat up, and lots of fishing baits/hooks/bobbers/sinkers left in cupholders and compartments. Bonus!!

It also came with an Eagle Silver Striker 600 plus sonar unit. The unit works, but needs a temp/speed sensor, which should be here tomorrow or the next day. For a total of $13.80 I won one new in package off ebay!!


The bad:

It came with a Motor Guide bowmount trolling motor. The trolling motor functions but needs some work. It needs a new switch, as only 2 of 5 forward speeds work. Also, the part the handle sticks out of that contains the switch - the upper half of it is cracked broken and beat up. Both are nominal cost items that we'll be fixxing sooner or later.

The tilt/trim motor is burned out, and thats an expensive thing to replace. The trim pump is good though and that helps to cut down the cost of fixxing it. I'll be taking care of that real soon.

The original seats were taken out of the boat and fishing seats installed. Not a real bad thing, but I do wish I had the original seats.

There are some soft spots in the floor. Thats not a good thing, but I am a handy kind of guy, and I can tackle that.


The Ugly:

The gel coat is beat up. Lots of scratches and dings, and one or 2 places that need a very minor amount of fiberglass work.

The 115 mercury is also cosmetically beat up. The stickers are mangled in places and it could use some touch up paint in a couple spots.

Overall though, its a 1994 boat with a 1994 115 merc outboard, which even has a laserII stainless prop. I think we stole it for 995$.
