We were thrilled to have a boat last summer, taking it to Devil's Foot, Waquoit Bay, and even Martha's Vineyard. My husband is a professional mariner and he took excellent care of the boat, including all the required maintenance, some improvements to the engine, gearbox, and trailer, and freshwater rinses after each use. We keep the boat in our driveway and transport it with a Hyundai Sonata.

We are asking for $3750 for the boat, engine, trailer, cover, products, and additional accessories (lobster traps, fishing rod, etc.), which reflects the additional investments we put into it. The boat is perfect for fishing, crabbing, and pulling right up to the beach for the day or Landfall for a couple of drinks.

The boat is water tight, and has been well-loved by us for two years. We have documented everything we have done to fix it, including replacing and refinishing the outer steering console, new fuel tank and lines, battery, and fixed and repaired cleats. We also recently replaced the benches with brand new wooden benches.

The boat comes with an anchor, lifejackets, other required safety gear (e.g. a paddle). We also have a canvas cover for the boat to protect it from the elements. We have taken the boat all over the Woods Hole, from Woods Hole to Martha's Vineyard, and often to Naushon. We wish we didn't have to sell it but we are moving.
