I bought this boat in January from a forum member and spent the past 6 months rebuilding. I removed all flooring and replaced with 5/8" plywood treated with 3 coats of thinned fiberglass resin. All new carpet and all screws sealed with silicone when fastening to the hull. New tinned wire and circuit breaker for 24 volt 70 lb Minnkota trolling motor that is less than 3 years old with very minimal fresh water use only per previous owner and has upgraded G Force handle and recessed foot control pedal. 2 new seats, fresh paint on console, new waterproof switches and fuse panel. Transom was replaced using 2 layers of marine grade plywood treated with 2 coats of fiberglass resin. Had my welder add a "1/4 aluminum plate to transom for extra support - stronger than new. 60 hp Johnson runs strong - freshly rebuilt carburetors, new OEM fuel pump, new plugs and OEM ignition installed by OMC mechanic. Boat sits on a Triton boat trailer that's in good shape with new tires and bearings. Boat is prewired for stereo and speakers. New bilge and aerator pumps (new wiring as well), and new wires run to navigation lights. 12 gallon gas tank in great shape. The only thing I did not replace on the boat are the gauges. I still have some of them and the old wiring is still there, I just didnt see a need for them.
No electronics installed but can offer a lightly used Lowrance Elite FS9 with RAM mount, cable and transducer ($999 new) as well as a 3 bank battery charger ($150 new) for the right price. Boat is solid, clean and has no leaks.
I rebuilt this boat thinking I'd be gifting it to my son in LA, but he is going a different route. Just trying to recoup my costs. Located in Daphne, AL. I cant post pictures from my work computer, will try to post some when I get home. Meanwhile send me a PM and I can text pictures.

Wow, that is a super deal for someone looking for an aluminum bass boat. The model year of the aluminum hull doesn't make any difference at all since you have completely rebuilt it. I can't believe it hasn't already sold.

I found a new seat that can repace the rear pedestal seat as well. Comes with anchor, rope, docklines, etc. Thanks

I can't believe it took you that long to sell it. I have been eyeing one that has weeds growing in it, and was thinking it would be a fun project to buy it, rebuild it, and then sell it.

Your experience convinced me that would be a real bad idea. smile

Congrats on the sale!

Worst time of the year to sell a boat. Would’ve gone in a day in April.

This is boat number three in my driveway. My wife's limit is 2. Strange thing is I went a few weeks w/no calls then have had 3 since I sold it.
