Garage Kept Checkmate Starflite 1986 21' on a 2002 Galvanized Single Axle EZ Loader Trailer with a Swing Tongue (Perfect to keep in a standard 2 Car garage). No Motor. The Boat is completely rigged for a Mercury Outboard and it has all Mercury controls: Mercury Side Mount Remote Controls with Trim, Throttle & Gear Cables, full set of Mercury/Quicksilver Gauges (Speedomter, Tachometer, Temperature, Trim, Water Pressure, Fuel, 12VDC Voltage & Hour Meter) & Teleflex SeaStar PRO Hydraulic Steering complete with hoses, SeaStar Pro Cylinder & SeaStar Pro Helm. The boat also includes a 3 Gallon Mercury Oil Tank, 29 Gallon Fuel tank, Battery and 6'' Setback Manual Jack Plate on a aluminum reinforced plate. It includes a Ski Tripod and a Ski Locker for the wake-board/tubing/water ski enthusiasts. The boat was rigged with a Mercury Optimax 225HP Outboard. It ran Mid 70s any day with it. With a Mercury 2-Stroke 200HP Motor it ran in the Mid 60s. All the electrical wiring has been completely re-done so there are absolutely no electrical issues with this hull. The boat has a custom Stereo (with CD and iPod/MP3 Input) complete with Bazooka Marine Speakers, Bazooka Marine Sub-woofer & a Bazooka Amplifier. All the Seats were also completely redone with the original Checkmate Factory upholstery not long ago. The boat comes complete with a custom Sumbrella Bimini Top, Custom Cockpit Cover & Full Sumbrella Boat Cover. With the Boat I will also include safety equipment including a Fire Extinguisher, 5 Life Jackets, Flares, Whistle, Throw Cushion, Anchor, etc. $4,500 OBO

WOW! 10 mph out of the last 25 hp of that engine. 1 mph per every 2.5 hp after 65 mph. where can get some of that!
 
225HP vs 200HP

Well, the 225HP was a 3.0L Optimax Powerhead, the 200HP was a 1989 Carburated 2.4L Powerhead. There was a huge difference between the engines.
 
6 Inch Setback - with the 3.0L 225 Optimax I used a 27'' Tempest. With the 200 2.4L I used a Laser II 23''.
 
Guys, I've seen and driven this boat. It's a nice ride and it's not been abused. The only reason Rafael is selling the boat is because he has a new Pulsare 2100 on order!
 
Thanks Jupiter Pulsare!! It's always nice to have the endorsement of other Checkmate members. A couple of members have expressed interest in the boat. I hope it will go to someone that takes good care of it. I have taken extremely good care of it throughout the years.
