I love this boat so much I bought another Contender, BUT I must sell this one first. My presssure is your gain!!
2000 Contender 23, Black hull with gold and red boot stripe, The hull is not faded or oxidized and is in great condition. You would never know its 7 years old. This boat is a real beauty and eye catcher. It has a 250 hp Yamaha Saltwater Series 2 with only 215 hours. The boat is rated at top speed at about 43mph. Very economical to run although I cannot give you burns numbers. I have always had it professionally maintained and had an open check bookfor anything that needed to be done. Other than new fuel pumps last year, I have NEVER spent a dollar on a repair to this engine in 6 years. Yearly tune ups and new water pumps done every year. It has new water pumps for the live well and washdown, new fuel pumps that are designed for ethanol fuel, Taco Grand Slam outriggers welded into the t-top with never used 15 foot outrigger poles ($1800). All electronics are new and updated, all replaced within last 2 years and include Raymarine 54 VHF ($ 200), Raymarine high definition fish finder DS600X ($850), Magellon Color GPS chartpotter map FX 324 ($800) with Sandy Hook map and software for other areas. It has a am/fm/cd player with built in speakers ($250), Bennett trim tabs, dual batteries, coaming bolsters throughout (black and white), 30 gallon live well, saltwater washdown with accordian hose, , stainless steel Edison tilt steering wheel, extra rod holders, pop up cleats Polarized tinted windshield. 130 gallon fuel tank. Included is 2001 Load rite tandem axle trailer with new disc brakes replaced last year ($750). The boat has always benn stored on the trailer. Great Boat, and super dependable, Just openned it up for the seaon and started right up and runs like a dream. This is a great opportunity to get a great boat at a great price. I will consider sharing in the cost of delivery east coast only. I have no problem making the deal contingent on inspection or marine survey with a refundable deposit.
