" For Sale" 88 Exciter

[JW]

Good luck with the sale! It's a great package, WAY too nice for me to take a sawz-all to the deck to make a bow-rider...

6K gets it with a prop.

If it doesn't sell for that, I'm keeping it.

Great minds think alike I guess. lol



Good luck with the sale.

Question

Has your 88 Exciter been repainted? I have an 87 Exciter and it has stripes on the bow plus the entire boat is metalflake.

Topside has been painted by a previous owner.



I remember a really good looking Exciter for sale up that way a while ago. Black and red- did you buy it?

Its rated for 185hp... my 3.0L 225ho weighs 450lbs, which is fairly light for a 3.0L- but its perfectly fine with it, imo.... your insurance company might think otherwise, though. I have insurance thru progressive for it and they know the size of the motor thats currently on it.

Some of the extras that go with it:
2 service manuals (one is omc factory)
New waterpump kit
Extra engine harness- complete
Side behind-panel mount throttle
Used hotfoot for omc
Some gauges, including a systa check gauge, water pressure, and extra smart tach.
Merc flo-torq prop kit- so you can run merc props on the omc
I'm sure a few things I'm forgetting.

Props to choose from top:
27P renegade (one blad has nic)
25P renegade worked by DAH (has nics on blades from use, works great)
25p renegade (looks new)

Also 28P raker II (looks new)

I have some interest in it again... don't know if I'll be in a Checkmate for the rally

You could always keep the Checkmate until after the rally or better yet don't sell it. You've got the room.

 

[ndaniels]

I'm going to get some Checkmate stickers for the sides of the 21.... stick em on for the rally and you guys will never know

 

[merc245]

I'll only notice if those stickers blow by me!

 

[ndaniels]

I'll list a couple of options and prices:
$5750 for complete boat and no props- because if you're like me, you have a few laying around
$6000 for complete boat and 1prop (your choice)
$6200 for 2 props (your choice)
$6400 for the boat and all 4 props

 

[ndaniels]

Whats wrong with these pictures?

 

[justincase]

You sold something!

 

[merc245]

That was a nice one,knew it wouldn't last long.

The new owner is a great guy and a member on the board... so far a silent member, but I have a feeling that will change with the purchase.

Its his first boat, so he's off to a hell of a start! I'll let him introduce himself and talk about the boat some. I think it will make a great boat for him and his wife. I also told him that I expect to see it at the rally this summer!
