Key Largo Boat Center Console

I've had trouble selling my Evinrude 250hp, one reason is 25" mid section second I'm not giving the motor away. So I was looking for a center console to put my power on. I found a 1999 Key Largo 21' center console. The boat comes with a T-top VHF radio, Garmin GPS and stereo. I'm adding hydro steering, trailer,the 250hp, gauges and a depth finder. I'll need to do buffing and add some color and decals since it's all white. Overall the boat is in great condition with some minor problems on the gelcoat. My plan is to have a "coastal Package" to sell in the winter. That's if I don't keep it. Here's some pictures from today as I starting the rigging. Oh one thing of note, the boat has a lifetime warranty on the transom, stringers and floor!!:thumb:

My name is Robbie, and I have a boating problem :rof:

Looks great! How will you decide which fishin' boat to take out, the Ranger or the new CC?

Fresh water no doubt the Ranger, saltwater the CC!!:thumb: One day I'll have another Checkmate, but for now this will do. :(
 
lmao!! I wanted a lake life decal instead of salt life, but that's all I could find. Matt don't worry I'm a fresh water guy, prefer the lake and rivers over offshore.:thumb:
 
Very nice! The Key Largos are nice "bare bones" CC's. Thing should fly with that 250 on it:bigthumb:

That's what those guys told me yesterday!! Key Largo doesn't have the finished gel coat inside like some of the others, but it's very functional!! I looked for a Seafox, Scout, etc, but couldn't find any for a decent price. I picked this up for $3000.00.:D

We joke about "lake life" stickers all the time! I may just get us some made.

You stole that boat... I am all for a good deal and you sir did well.
 
I got most of the rigging done yesterday, need to finish connecting the throttle cables and figure out why the bilge pump and navigation lights aren't working. Also got to cut holes for my gauges and install the hydro steering that I ordered Friday. I'm getting close for a water test!!:banana:Probably will run a smooth 50 GPS with the Evinrude 250 hp!!:D
 
Finally got the "tank" water ready!!! I added new hydro steering, LED navigation lights, switch panel and bilge pump. Everything works now! Also water sanded the hull just need to buff the white gel coat and add some color stripes to it. Oh need to replace those ugly registration numbers as well.:shakehead: Here's pictures as is sits today. Edit: forgot to mention new scuppers and thru hull fittings.
