Description
Twin Tunnel Hull made by American Multi Craft, Monterrey CA (which is no longer in business). This is a true-tunnel hull. This is an extremely rare boat. No one that I've talked to has ever seen another one like it. Lots of heads turn when they see it. Center, rear, recessed console. Set up like a deck boat (one can walk all around or remove center board to have center walkway for "bench type" seating). Has front swivel chair, driver's swivel chair, both with height extension poles (for fishing). The "deck floor" is a non-structural "insert" with a plywood backer that does have a soft spot. This boat is VERY fast out-of-the-hole. The hull doesn't weigh a lot. It really carves the corners (has a kill switch lanyard, just in case). Transom is reinforced. Manual jack plate. 175 HP Mercury Black Max V6 (1977). Boat rated for up to 185 HP. All 3 hulls are very solid (when looking in the bilge area forward, it appears that this hull was designed to not have any wood stringers, so no rotted stringers). Motor runs good. Newer stator, rebuild carbs, rebuilt fuel pump, rebuilt poppet valve. However the last time out, the lower unit popped out of forward gear. Not sure why because the newer gear set only has about 100 hours on it. Included is an additional spare lower-unit (empty) gear case housing. Lower unit is off the motor right now, but I can put it back on if you wish. I have good sources for motor parts that I will pass onto you. Included is an aluminum prop. SS prop available for $150. Included - a 10 Ft long wired pedal-control Min-Kota trolling motor (deep cycle battery not included - (goes under front seat). Included - a Humminbird TCR ID-1 depth/fish finder. Custom trailer is made with U-channel so, no closed tubes so, no rust. Trailer recently painted and re-wired. It has new rollers, new high quality wheel bearings & seals. Bearing Buddies. New steel rims, new Carlisle radial tires-(not shown in pics). Included - transom motor-support-bracket, starting battery, three - 6 gallon gas tanks, plus 1 old vintage 6 gallon gas tank that needs restored. Folding swim ladder, paddle, anchor & rope. I stored it under a 12' x 20' HD tarp with pvc support tubes slid onto seat poles. PVC support tubes included, but not the tarp. Included are all parts and service paperwork/receipts.
Clear boat title and clear motor title. Colorado does not title boats or motors, so my clear titles are Ohio titles in my name that i will sign over to you.
I've reluctantly decided to sell it because my almost 70 year old heart can't take the adrenaline thrill this boat gives me and taking care and storing two boats is getting to be a bit much for me (I have another "family" boat stored at Lake Cumberland). Also, now retired in Colorado, there aren't any large lakes and the small lakes are way over-crowded for me.
I will consider delivering it to you for travel costs (gasoline and a cheap motel room if overnight travel is necessary)
