1979 20' Master Angler with 140 Suzuki
 

**LISTING FEE PAID**

I hate to do this, but this wonderful economy forces a sale. I just completely redid this boat, and really love it.

**Details:**

# 1979 hull - taken down to the stringers this year (have photos of gutted boat)
# Motor is a 2000, bought from Diamond Suzuki in Florida
# Motor is a DT140, oil injected, fuel injected, two stroke
# Older aluminum 3-blade prop (came with the motor, you'd probably want to replace it)
# New floor and interior fiberglass/gelcoat
# New transom
# Every last bit of wiring is new!
# Every last bit of fuel system is new, including the aluminum 50 gallon in-floor tank!
# All trailer wiring is completely new, with submersible LED lights
# Trailer Hubs, bearings, rims, tires, winch, bunks, and rollers are all new
# Trailer hitch tongue and jack are new, extra support was welded to trailer to make sure it is sturdy
# Rub rail is new (Rigid vinyl with stainless steel insert)
# Sony speakers are new, am/fm cassette deck is old but works great (CD players tend to skip in boats, so I decided to use a cassette player with an adapter for my iPod)
# Lighting is new (run/nav/anchor/courtesy)
# SeaStar hydraulic steering is new (helm is original)
# Fire extinguishers are new
# Two batteries with Perko switch
# Instrument panel is new
# Leaning post is new, has flip-up storage, removable backrest, and 4 rod holders (6 if you remove the backrest)

Test drives are possible for serious buyers.

Asking $13,000 or best offer. Need to sell... so make an offer!!! Over $16,500 invested (is "invested" the right word here.... probably not!).

Here are some photos from during the restoration:

RESTORATION PHOTOS

I realize that some of the cosmetics aren't up to the standards of some boats you'll see on this forum, but this was my first boat re-do. Everything is very solid, and with a little more work she could be perfect. I would do a new gelcoat job on the hull and the center console. I would also do some more work on the hatches and top cap. I have yellow and black vinyl stripes that I was going to install where the original stripe was applied. I also have an interior "rub rail" (not sure of the proper term, it runs along the bottom edge of the inside of the cap) that I am including as well. It needs to be drilled out and installed. The only other thing missing that I can think of are the cushions that go on the seat on front of the console.

I would consider a trade for a diesel extended- or crew-cab truck 1999 or newer.

Let me know if there are any ????s!

Is the boat going to be in FL anytime soon? I'd like to check it out, But I can't drive all the way to Texas.

Re: 1979 20' Master Angler with 140 Suzuki
 

No, sorry. I don't get to FL too often.

Boy the boat market sucks, very nice boat

Re: 1979 20' Master Angler with 140 Suzuki
 

Yes, it really sucks. I watch Craigslist pretty close here in Houston and you can get some really nice boats for under $10,000. I'm trying to decide at what point it's not worth letting this go.

I just posted it another forum for you at least, mostly Fla guys though

Re: 1979 20' Master Angler with 140 Suzuki
 

Well I am meeting someone on Thursday... cross your fingers for me. He wants to trade me a truck for the boat which I will definitely do. I can sell my current truck or his truck more easily in this market than I can a boat! I told him if he gets the boat he needs to join this forum.

This boat is STILL AVAILABLE! Ugh. Somebody come and take her to a good home!

Is this boat still available?

Believe it or not.... this is still available. I am willing to ship/deliver to other states. Somebody help me move it!

If you were in CT I would take this off your hands. Awesome boat!

Hey Capt! Couple of questions...
 

CaptCurt, sent you a PM. Would like to ask a few questions about your experience pulling the fuel cell out of my 79 MA. Thanks. Vezo.
