    Pulse 185 BR Beam Width

    I'm in the market for a Checkmate Pulse 185 BR and was wondering if anyone knows the Beam Width for this boat. I searched the web and couldn't find an answer...just want to know if it will fit in my shed (70" door opening). Thanks in advance! Mo Power

    What would you pay for a 1989 Starliner?

    The dash does look cool with the carbon fiber styling. The boat also has an 8 speaker, 2 amp Clarion system.

    What would you pay for a 1989 Starliner?

    Thanks Knarloid! I'm a speed demon too. Going with this particular boat may get too expensive since I won't be happy with the current engine.

    What would you pay for a 1989 Starliner?

    Thanks Guys! How fast will this one run? Can I expect 60 mph with such a setup or am I dreaming? If I go with this one, I would definitely hang a larger motor on it in the future along with some interior upgrades.

    What would you pay for a 1989 Starliner?

    Guys - I am not a Checkmate owner yet, but I need some advice on a rig I am considering. There is a Starliner in Chicago. The interior was redone with inferior materials (seats are not original) and the transom has some stress cracks. It has a 150 hp Mariner Super Mag (1996) which is supposed...

    WTB - Pulsare 2100 BR

    Hi Garrett, Yes - The one in Madison recently sold for $17K was exactly what I was looking for! That was one sweet looking ride! The wife wants a bow rider and I have the need for speed. The Pulse 210 in Shawano may be an option...I heard they are heavier and slower, but handle rough water...

    WTB - Pulsare 2100 BR

    I am looking for a mid 90's Pulsare with a 225-250 hp outboard. Willing to travel the Midwest to pick it up. My budget is 10-12K. Is it possible to find such a boat in this price range? Located out in Milwaukee WI. Thanks! Mo Power

    2002 Checkmate Pulse 185 Value

    JW - Thanks for the compression ranges. I agree with other posters...compression can vary based on temperature, battery strength, etc. I have a good boat mechanic that I can bring out to look over the rig.

    2002 Checkmate Pulse 185 Value

    Bidding War, Eh? Not a chance...if the boat sells for 13K, it sells for 13K. I won't be heartbroken. It's a nice rig, but there will always be other opportunities...you have to be willing to walk away. I truly believe gas prices are going to be over $5/gallon this summer with what's going on in...

    2002 Checkmate Pulse 185 Value

    I stopped out to see the Pulse 185 today and it really is in beautiful condition. The engine looks brand new and the only areas showing any wear is the steering wheel and the ski locker lid. The paint is flawless with not a scratch anywhere. The hull and interior look flawless. The owner will...
