    1974 MX-13 w/ 65 Johnson

    Still FOR SALE In an effort to really sell the boat, I've decided to lower the price to $1200 which is a steal for everything. I'll also throw in a few extra props and the fuel cans. Who needs a winter project??!!

    1974 MX-13 w/ 65 Johnson

    73 MX 13 w/ 65 Johnson The boat is definitely FOR SALE. Unfortunately it did not get in the water once this summer and I hate to see it not being used and appreciated. Condition is still really good. Price: $1700 and I am willing to deliver within reason. Feel free to contact me directly...

    1974 MX-13 w/ 65 Johnson

    I would only consider selling the whole package. Boat, motor, and tilt trailer. $1500 would seem like a fair offer, and I would deliver to a reasonable distance or at least meet 1/2 way. The boat is still very strong. Sure it could be a project, or just use it. The boat will do the low...

    1974 MX-13 w/ 65 Johnson

    More photos I pulled the covers off today since it was so nice and took a few more photos of the transom and seats. Let me know if you want to see any thing in particular. I should also note that its not a 74, but rather a 73. The boat is solid and can be run as is. Of course everything...

    1974 MX-13 w/ 65 Johnson

    I should also mention that the boat is pretty much all orginal. It was very well maintained by my uncle who had it for most of the time its existed. The transom is solid. I do have mulitple props. Last time I checked with just me in the boat, and a gallon of fuel it did low 40's..no trim...

    1974 MX-13 w/ 65 Johnson

    Location: Asheville, NC and would be willing to deliver/meet somewhere in the middle. Price is TBD...need to do more research on what it might be worth as is. I will try to post pics this weekend as its under dual covers now.

    1974 MX-13 w/ 65 Johnson

    I am considering selling my MX-13 which is mostly original and in great shape to the right owner. I even have the original trailer. The boat runs great and we've had many good times in it. Its just to cramp with 2 people and our 2 dogs. If you are seriously interested in the boat, please...

    1973 MX-13

    I'm currently running a 1973 Johnson 65 with a 21 pitch prop. With the motor trimmed at position 3 of 5 and light on gas and weight, I can run about 37 wide open and will run smooth at 32 all day long. My question is with that motor and prop, and more or less a stock setup is that a reasonable...

    Any MX-13 owners out there?

    1973 MX-13 I was looking at a brochure for 1973 models...and my boat doesn't look exactly like the picture in the brochure. Is it safe to assume that the last 4 numbers on the HIN is the year it was made??

    Motor Fins

    I just got a 1973 MX-13 with a 1973 Johnson 65hp motor. The motor runs great, though the idle needs to be adjusted. In any event, I have seen the fins that mount to the bottom of the motor, like a big wing. How useful are those?? Is it worth the money?? What is thier real purpose. Thanks...

    1973 Red Beauty??

    Hello!! Just picked up my 1973 13' Red Checkmate from my uncle. Ironic that I own a boat that is older than I am. If anyone has leads on original parts or specs, I would greatly appreciate. Any info, tidbits, or conversation welcome as well. Thanks
