86 Hydrostream Verado $500

[Quinten]

Hull needs to be repaired. It seems that a floor was put in it at some time, because that is fairly solid. The core actually sounds pretty good, per the tap test, except about 1 1/2 feet forward of the transom on the very bottom of the pad. I guess you won't know until you cut the floor out. It had a splashwell delete when I assume they replaced the transom. They must not have done a very good job, because it needs a transom now. There is no rigging. I do have a couple of plastic seat shells in very good shape that go with it. The vinyl on those is shot. The clear is coming off the deck, but I don't know if the gel cote is salvageable or not. Besides that, it has the expected stress cracking etc. Have title in hand.

The trailer is in good to very good condition. Minus fenders, the aluminum trailer has a newer axle, hubs, springs, wheels and lights. The tires are also in pretty good shape. I was supposed to get a previous registration form the former owner, but after the cash changed hands, I don't think he was very worried about it. It should be easy to get a home made title for it as there aren't really any markings on it and it weighs less than 500 lb. When I had to get a registration here in Florida for a steel trailer that I bought from GA. the hard part was because it was for a 21' boat and weighed over 500 lb. So, I had to take the boat off and go weigh it, even though I had a previous reg for that one. Consider it home made and ask your local DMV what the requirement is.

I was going to restore this one and save another Stream from the bone yard, but I have come to the conclusion that it will not happen in a timely fashion. Time has been hard to come by.

I also have a progressive set back jack plate (manual) made by Allison and a new dual cable steering system that could be purchased with the boat if needed. Otherwise I will sell those after the fact.

So, there you have it. I'll try to answer any other questions the best that I can, but I have only watched the boat set in my drive way, just like it is. Contact through here or phone 941-713-3939. Thanks.

FYI, 16' 6'' long, production weight was supposed to be about 650 lb.

This is a link to the picture of the steering system. Randy, I hope you don't mind. Teleflex, dual cable no feedback. New.

Man, after looking through the forum here, there is no shortage of project boats. Thanks AFR.:D

The trailer and buckets are nearly worth the price.

This was my boat about 13 years ago. Still looks about the same just in ruff shape now. I did the floor 3/4" ply, filled in the splash well, center steer, and someone clear the deck. I had a inline SS it ran in the high 70's. Brings back memories for sure. Good luck with the sale.

Very cool. I hope you didn't take the transom comment personally. On second thought, I really have no idea if or when the transom was replaced and what its been through since. If it's the same floor, it has held up well!

Your not hurting my feelings a bit. If my memory serves me correctly we didn't do the transom. Just the splash well and the floor. The floor is 3/4" ply with two stringers 3/4" ply as well. Which was done about 13 years ago. This was the first boat I built. I had someone clear the deck for me and it started peeling about a year after that. The boat is pretty light. Like I said it ran high 70's with a inline XS. I sold the boat to a kid probably 17yrs old. This is the first time I have seen it since. I assumed he blew it over. I did sell it with a 150 V6. Good luck with the sell it was cool to see this boat pop up again.

Boat is sold. Jack plate is sold. Thanks S&F and thanks Gary. Dual cable steering still available. I'll post it separate next week if it doesn't sell.

Sorry, forgot to put price on steering. $200. Quoted to one person that may be considering.
