$ 170,000

FAST WITH 400 HORSES, EXCELLENT CONDITION INSIDE AND OUT! This popular aluminum Alaskan sportfisher has been stored in a climate-controlled shop and practically shines like a new penny! This is a fast boat that is set up very nicely for weekends of fishing. Her tough frame keeps you safe during long trips and this model is known for its stability as well. Her huge back deck has a 40-gallon transom fish well, a cockpit helm, and access to a stand-up head. She also comes with a lot of fishing gear, including two Cannon downriggers. It doesn t get much better than this!

Interior:

The cabin is secure from the outdoors by a sliding and locking bulkhead door. Once inside, you are met with a very bright and easy-to-clean interior that is in excellent condition. A petite galley is on starboard with a Wallas stove, refrigerator, and drawers for storage. Forward is a throne of a captains chair, an adjustable air ride with hearty arm rests and a foot rest. The port side is dedicated to a three-person dinette with beverage holders inset into the table for four drinks. There are storage drawers under the aft bench seat. The vessel head closet is accessed from the cockpit, which is great for keeping the cabin clean. When fishing is done, store messy boots and coats in the head for the ride home, not in the cabin. The v-berth is quite large and can accommodate a family of four for overnights. Screened sliding windows keep breezes flowing when the cabin gets toasty, but in the cooler months, you have heating with the Webasto 2000ST kerosene heat with thermostatic controls.

On Deck:

The self-bailing treadplate deck on this sportfisher is large and unencumbered and great for a fishing foursome. Coming aboard is easy through the port side transom door. You have a cockpit helm for keeping the captain where the action is. There is a lot of storage to this deck. She has a 40-gallon fish box in the transom and two additional fish boxes in the floor. There is also a lockable cabinet at the cockpit helm and storage trays along the port and starboard gunnels. This package comes with a wide array of fishing gear, including four halibut rods with Shimano reels, two king poles with Ambassador reels, two Cannon downriggers with mounts and attachments and various other weights, tackle and accessories. When the fish have been caught and cleaned and you are calling it a successful day, wash down this beautiful boat with the on-board washdown system.

Engine and Mechanical:

This boat is powered by two popular and reliable 2012 Yamaha 200 horsepower gas engines with only 92 hours on them. She is a fast boat and will get you to the fishing spots briskly and safely. If you need to anchor, she has a Lewmar winch with 600 feet of line.

Electrical and Electronics:

You have a well-rounded electronics package that is ready to take you on your adventures straight away. This includes a Garmin GPS, plotter, depth sounder and radar. She also has a Garmin VHF. This boat has a Pro Sport 20 Plus battery charger, one start battery, and a three-unit housebank. She has all the electoral accessories you hope for in a boat of this caliber, including trim tabs, electric wipers at each of the windshields, and more.

She also comes with user manuals for everything and a wide array of safety equipment, including two extra large survival suits, a man overboard rope-throw bag, and other safety items. She also comes with an eight-foot Dunlop dinghy on her cabin roof with a pump and repair kit, as well as a four horsepower Suzuki kicker.
