Joe's E-Bay Enchanter!

Well you will definatly have to sand the clear off no mater what you plan to do, just dont go to course on the sand paper and you might get lucky and be able to buff it out.My trimate was all chaulky and faded.I wet sanded it out and buffed it.Looks great :thumb:
 
Thanks for all the Feed back. I would love to put a 200 on the back but realize that my summer is going to be taken up with my wifes (our) pregnancy. I don't have the time to do all the work. Although I did wet sand the top
and know it will and can be brought back to life. The transom is solid along with the floor. I would say it needs interior,motor with controls including steering cable the guy i bought it from made it sound like he just took it out and locked up the motor. He didn't tell me he tyied to fix it and gave up on it while forgetting to put all the parts back on. Also the steering cable is so far gone I wondered when I got home it had to be in this condition at minimum a year. At this point I though I would list it on the website because I know how paticuliar Checkmatew owners are and thought someone might want to get a deal on it. If anyone one is serious feel free to contact me.

Well I found a great Evinrude 200 to go on the back I want to get 2500 for the whole set up boat, trailer and motor. I know it would be fast and make someone have a great summer.
 
man, i dont know how i got here, but i know ill
be flying my 85 Enchanter, if thats what it is. All
I know is that Ive got a 21 chek, that ive been trying
to find out the brand(not that it matters}, but this is close
est yet. All that have taken a ride so far, called it the
SMILEMAKER. even if you were sad, it still pulled a smile on your face.
i can get to Tangeir Island, in the Chesapeake Bay, before
the airplane leaving Melfa airport, here on the ESVA. 14 miles,
12 minutes, add 3 minutes with no chop. I met a guy who can
take a 1980-90 Merk 200 and send all those fuck. This man can
build a power head with his genious, and dare u 2 blow it. its a
black max grave yard, of warranty and non stop fun. Come to
DentonMD, and hear us, in June. Im planning my suicide for 2006,
with multiple jack plates, and hand-grenades, and TOOL playing
live.
 
Yes Joe I am interested. But it will have to wait for awhile. I just bought Dave Brinkleys Trimate II. Maybe this fall. Do you have an idea what you want for it.
