BigMac Posted March 8, 2007 Report Posted March 8, 2007 A good friend of mine bought an Aquafish last year and now finds himself in the position of having to sell it to finance the purchase of a new house for his ever expanding family. The hull is not quite 2 years old and was built by designer as a demonstrator and was run out of Essex somewhere purely as a sea trial vessel. When Eddie bought it it had a V8 Chevvy petrol engine in it but last June he had it fitted with a 165hp Mercruiser sterndrive. This engine has no more than 30 hours on it!!!! He's fitted a Navman plotter and fishfinder (still needs a DSC), anchor and warp, livebait well and loads of bits and pieces. It is a marvellous boat and he's offering it at a very reasonable price. The engine, sterndrive and counter rotating prop cost him 15 grand on its own,without the boat. It also comes with twin wheeled, self braking trailer. Its a very clean boat and looks like it just came out of the mould. Hopefully here's a pic of it sat at rest Quote
BigMac Posted March 8, 2007 Author Report Posted March 8, 2007 And another of her starting to wake ride us at 30+ knots. If you fancy a sea trial, give me a PM and I@ll put you in contact with him. He's going to advertise it in 2 weeks, so if it floats your boat move quickly, its a fantastic boat!!!!!!!!!! Quote

pegleg Posted March 13, 2007 Report Posted March 13, 2007 Hi guys, i've just got out of hospital so i haven't been able to reply. Well it certainly looks the part and i would have taken her out for a sea trial if i had known it was up for sale earlier. I have managed to source a boat which is currently moored in Weymouth and i will be writing out a lovely big cheque to pay for her on saturday. Cheers Jas Quote
TomBettle Posted March 13, 2007 Report Posted March 13, 2007 (edited) Good luck with your new boat Jason and Alan, hope you don't mind, but I've mentioned your friends boat to a few people in passing. Edited March 13, 2007 by TomBettle Quote
