I have received a few questions via email that I will answer here for anyone else wondering.

I do have additional pictures that I can email to anyone who is interested. It was raining when these pictures were taken.

The boat is located in Georgetown, SC. It is currently on the trailer and can be seen at our boat dealer, Tailwalker marine in Georgetown.

We are selling the boat to move up to the 33T with triple motors.

All service records are available from our dealer, as well as current printouts on the motors.

The motors are under warranty until 2008.

Brandon,

Sharp looking boat. How did you find your way down to Lady's Island from Lumberton, NC? I get down there 5 or 6 times a year. Good luck with the sale, Contenders are great boats!

Hal

Hal,

I moved down here a little over two years ago. After graduating from USC, my wife and I started looking for jobs. We knew we wanted to be near the coast, and we decided to start in Beaufort and work our way north with the possibility of coming back to Lumberton to work with my father in the back of our minds. We really like the Lowcountry.

The Contender is a friend’s boat for sale...but my Sailfish is also for sale.

I think the seat itself comes from contender but the base is custom made. Our dealer, Tailwalker marine, installs them on most boats they sell. It has storage under the seat, storage in the sides and a round 50 gallon livewell. The T-top and canvas are custom as well and made by Cramer's and Sharp's in Georgetown, SC.

The boat is still for sale.

We took delivery of our new Contender a month or two ago and are motivated to sell this one.

I have a friend who knows someone who is seriously in the market for a 31. I have sent him a link to this ad.
One question...has this boat been tournament fished?
