Papal Transaction ID# U-2MU28469RY364501M

Pains me to do it, but it's time to sell my 1974 23' Classic Seacraft Tsunami.25 General Marine DE replacement is in my yard, so she's got to go.
Location: East Islip, NY
Original gel coat, still shines up beautiful. I have owned this boat for 20 years.

Older restore done in 2000, including;

New Engine beds and full transom replacement by Raybo Marine

Bottom stripped, barrier coated, ablative paint applied

New Alpha 1 Gen II drive

New 5.7 LX EFI 260 hp

Cockpit coaming pads

window glass replaced

Lenco trim tabs

Manifolds, risers, oilpan replaced in 2015

Lowrance hds 5 plotter/ff with thru-hull tilt element transducer installed 2015

Sw washdown/ livewell pump.

Dual axle roller trailer included; fair condition, no title. Basically gets me in and out of the water spring and fall

Approx. 600 hrs, little or no use since 2006.

Great riding and handling boat, the added weight of the I/O package makes it even more so.

Cruising speed 26 28mph@ 8gph; very fuel efficient.

Boat is in excellent condition, decks are solid. A little TLC needed, since I've used her only a handful of times in the last few years.

Price: $9,500.00. No insulting offers please, this boat is pretty close to turn key, no transom or deck work needed and the older Potter hulls are getting harder to find!

Raised my 2 boys on this boat, hoping to see her go to a good home, thanks!

Wow 43 years old and still going !! V Nice.

What size is the fuel tank ?

[bobfish21]

Pretty sure 65 gallons. Yes, boat still looks great after 40+ years. i really love this boat, but with my bad knees and all, it was time to slow down and go a bit bigger. Her replacement is a 25' General Marine, full keel DE boat with a single 200 diesel. 15-16 kt cruise, so i'm giving up a bit of speed, but the ride will be better.

[bobfish21]

Bump for a lowered price. Need to say goodbye soon, 3 boats in the yard now!

[bobfish21]

would also consider interesting trade for decent 18- 20 cc.

^Loving those last two posts. Too many boats!....trades considered! It's that kind of mentality that drive our wives crazy haha. GLWS it's a beauty!

[bobfish21]

Thanks- yeah, now that I read it, does sound a bit schizophrenic.
The 25 General Marine and my son's 17 Cape Horn will be heading to Montauk for the summer, figured a small cc for the GSB in Islip wouldn't be a bad thing.
One thing I've got going for me, she still has more horses than I've got boats!

I feel your pain on that! In my experience, one horse equals about 25-30 feet of boat, probably lots more but I'm just numb. Just finishing my last season as a high school rodeo parent (state finals and one invitational to go). She takes her 2 horses to college with her in August for rodeos there - I never had any idea how happy I could be about horses going to college. Maybe now I will finally be able to take some time to work on my 23...
