This boat has been great to us these past four seasons and should not need anything to provide many more seasons of fun and adventurer but it’s time for us to move up to a bigger boat that better fits our lifestyle so this one has to go. Our new boat is already picked out. We have trucked it home from the marina at the end of each season where it’s been shrink wrapped and sits on stands, plugged in for the winters. Boat is currently in the water at our slip in South Portland for viewing. It will come out and go on the hard in Harpswell in October and can be easily viewed. We can also provide information for a great hauler to move it over land for you if you need or can possibly arrange a water delivery within reason.
Feel free to call, text or email with any questions.
