78 V-MATE II (Sold)

[TheNerd]

Any interest? Dont really need to sell it, just toying with the idea of getting something different. 17 feet long 78 merc. V6 150. Boat has newer interior, dual cable steering, 6 inch manual jack plate. Trailer has new tires, winch, and diamond plate fenders. Cleans up good and gets lots of attention for a little money. $2700.00 obo. Located in Michigan, could meet someone at a reasonable distance if boat was paid in full.

Good looking rig. I really like those boats. Mine was an easy 60mph boat w/150 Merc. My family out grew the 17ft.
Good luck.

Thanks LA, I wont be upset at all if it doesnt sell, just thought I would see what happens. I have been itching to buy a new toy, and dont have the room for two boats.​

[illMATTic]

[Kowboi7399]

Ill offer $1500.00. Nice boat bro like it alot.

 

[TheNerd]

Thanks for the offers, but I wouldnt sell it for $2699.00. Actually the thought of it leaving has me kinda nervous. For some odd reason I really like it.

 

[zstevens]

what are you thinkin your gonna get ?

 

[Kowboi7399]

The boats def worth that looks nice man..

 

[BullittBen]

No wonder I couldn't sell mine for $3000+......

Man that's a nice boat especially for that price

Ben you were prolly on track, I didnt get much response here, but Graigslist brought in a bunch of action. I still dont know what i want to do, I tried to weed out all the tire kickers and time wasters. I have a guy coming to look at it in the morning. So we will see what happens, alhtough I should have listed it for more.

The big question will be what to get if I sell it, I have been looking at a few things. Would prefer to get another Check, but who knows.

I found a clean 16 foot Bayliner cuddy with a 90hp Force that caught my eye. Even has the original hot pink stripe.

The mid on my trimate is the same as your. Could you do me a favor and take a picture of the steering attachment at the motor. Need to see how the second cable is mounted in front. you can send them to

if it's not a checkmate, you need an stv with like a 260..

Sorry, I see that it's sold now. What kind of performance were you getting? Was that a 1978 Merc?
