    Checkmate MX-15 Hull

    I have an MX-15 hull up for sale. It's in pretty rough shape. Needs new stringer, floor, and transom, along with paint. I'll be holding onto the engine and rigging, so this is just a bare hull on a trailer. The trailer is a different one than what I got it with. This one will function fine for a hull restoration, but would likely be under capacity once a motor is mounted to this hull.

    If anyone is interested, please feel free to call/text/email/pm me (847-660-9135, remreid12@hotmail.com).

    Here is an album of all the pictures I have of the boat:

    Thanks,
    Remington

    Sorry for the link issue. Here's what it looked liked when I bought it a year ago. I'm surprised the motor didn't break the transom with how rotten it is. Price is $300.

    Trim tabs

    Wow that's a short shaft motor you got with a long shaft extension on it. Is it an XS the cowl looks like one? You need to make it a short shaft again and mount it on something cool and vintage. It should have run great on that boat as a short shaft as well. Wonder why the previous owner made it a long shaft.

    I have a 1972 MX16 and been looking for original checkmate trim tabs like that boat has. I will buy them from you if you would remove them and sent them to me. Email me a davidwfulton@comcast.net or PM me here.

    Thanks Dave

    Yep a 1973 circle c block 1500 short shaft. It's a louvered cowl. I have no history on the boat. Previous owner didn't know anything about it. Maybe they wanted it to plane quicker with the shaft extension. I've been in the process of restoring a rotten mx-14. I used the cowl, trim pump & harness, trim tabs, water pressure gauge, dual steering cable linkage system, and trailer from this mx-15 for the mx-14. The 150 is sitting in the garage. It's low on compression, and distributor wires are completely shot. Going to save that motor for a future project.

    So the trim tabs are not for sale, as they're on my mx-14. Just a bare hull on a trailer for sale.

    Ok this MX-15 hull is up for consideration again, this time with some other optional components. I have a calkins boat trailer that can go with this boat that has had the hubs, bearings (with bearing buddies), seals, winch, and jack stand (outdated attached pic doesn't show this) all replaced within the last 1.5 years. See attached picture of said trailer under a different checkmate of mine (MX-14). This is actually the trailer I originally purchased the MX-15 with (see post #5 pictures), then I used it for the MX-14, but I recently have purchased a different trailer for my MX-14, so this trailer is now up for grabs. Over the last 2 years I have put over 1000 miles on this trailer without any issues. Also up for consideration is a short shaft 1969 100hp that runs that can go with this. The cowl in the picture is dented, but I have a couple others that are dent free. If a long shaft would be desired, I also have one of those, and another running 100hp powerhead. I also have a set of correct "racing" checkmate branded trim tabs. I also have some rigging components, including some ride guide steering cables, an older style dual ride guide rack & pinion helm, ride guide steering wheel, correct era gauges, controls, power trim pumps systems, and a transom bracket that can raise the engine vertically without any setback. Note that some of these components are located in Fond du Lac, WI while others are located in Cary, IL (I frequently travel between and can move components as needed)
    Thanks
