Decided this is going up for sale. Need to buy some things for my side business so this and the RX7 have to go. Details: 1987 Thundercraft 18’ open bow in good shape. 2.5 Mercruiser that runs very well. NO SOFT SPOTS in the floor Comes with canvas cover, bimini top, life jackets, all emergency equipment and 2 tubes and tow ropes that I will include if I get my asking price. New depth/fish finder also. It fired right up last year every time I took it out. It got a new belt, engine tuneup, new battery, new prop, all the wood was touched up with teak oil and new radio and speakers installed. We also replaced most of the wood on the trailer. It really is a nice boat and for the year, you will be hard pressed to find one as clean as this. ![http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/29513_10150185865575427_768243_n_zps798a37e9.jpg](http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/29513_10150185865575427_768243_n_zps798a37e9.jpg) ![http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/29513_10150185865605427_773619_n_zpsc07396f0.jpg](http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/29513_10150185865605427_773619_n_zpsc07396f0.jpg) ![http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/29513_10150185865565427_7067705_n_zps4a86e166.jpg](http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/29513_10150185865565427_7067705_n_zps4a86e166.jpg) Proof that it does run and was used: ![http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/29513_10150185865615427_2554604_n_zps2822304a.jpg](http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/29513_10150185865615427_2554604_n_zps2822304a.jpg) ![http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/29513_10150185865625427_6695079_n_zps453621e0.jpg](http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/29513_10150185865625427_6695079_n_zps453621e0.jpg) ![http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/34018_10150195400910427_1023115_n_zps7c73f7f4.jpg](http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/34018_10150195400910427_1023115_n_zps7c73f7f4.jpg) This was taken last summer on the lake: ![http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/578127_10151739366815427_166493243_n_zps81f067b8.jpg](http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/578127_10151739366815427_166493243_n_zps81f067b8.jpg) I am asking $3,500 or B/O which I believe is a very fair deal to include the trailer and all equipment. I have the clean title and reg for the trailer as well. ---

Thanks! It really is a nice boat and has treated us very well. It is sad to sell it, but like anything, if you don’t use it enough, you can’t justify it. I am also starting up a side business and could use the money there, so hopefully someone else can enjoy this and have many more years of great times on the water. ---

Since you’re an nyspeed member, my services will be provided free of charge. That is a very generous offer, but I think it be much better if you bought it from me! You work too hard, you need to take some time off and enjoy yourself. This could be your perfect downtime opportunity that you have been looking for! ---

Go renew your CL ad. Do it every couple days since all you have do now is go to edit and click “renew”. This time of year it will sell quick if you keep it near the top of CL. ---

I don’t want to renew it haha I really don’t want to sell it unless the right offer comes along aka my asking price. I bought what I needed for my business without selling this. It’s not a must sell at the moment.
