Guys I am trying to get rid of my F-25. Here is a list of things she has:

1. Lowerance X-25 Depth Finder
2. 500 Watt Inverter
3. Refridgerater GE
4. Microwave
5. Twin Bank Battery Charger
6. Electric Head w/ Macerator and holding tank
7. Fresh water bladder w/ Accumlator Tank
8. A/C
9. Fume Detector
10. 1211 Halon FireBoy engine shutdown system
11. Windlass
12. Swim Platform
13. Swim Ladder
14. Trim Tabs
15. Amidships bilge pump.
16. TV with DVD and home theater system
17. Hot water heater
18. CD player
19. VHF
20. Hailer system
21. 60 gallon tanks w/ a spare 40 gallon tank.

POWER:

1. 8.1 400hp Mercrusier 454 cubic inch big block engine
2. Direct drive plantary transmission w/ no reduction

NOTE: I have just installed this engine, it is raw water cooled. I have only took the boat out once since I have installed it. The model year of the motor is 1991, with the boat hour indicator from which the engine came from said 220 hours. The boat from which it came from is said to be an estate sale.
I burn only Mobil One Syenthetic oil in this engine and use top quality filters.
Transmission uses RedLine D4 ATF

There is somethings on the boat that does need attention. First of all is the back deck needs replacing. Now the deck framing is already in place and is VERY soild with treated marine grade 1x4s built is a 1 foot square pattern. The deck is all wood.

The swim platform has a slight abrasion on the rear along with two supports which caused this during a recent storm

The portside exterior bulkhead needs replacing, along with the starboard bulkhead that is accessed through the head.

The teak work needs some attention.

With the boat comes two power cords, a spare prop, alcohol stove, fenders, line, life vests, first aid kit, spare parts, anchors, huge deckbox, and tools.

The low retail for this boat with this many features is $ 11, 900
The cost of cure for a boatyard to complete the repairs is: $ 3000.00

The sub total is $ 8,900 plus I am goning to knock another $3,400 off.

I will sell this boat for $5,500 with everything.

Leave me a message if you are interested. Buyer is responsible for pickup and trailering.

Reason for sale: I am a marine surveyor by trade, and recently my business has doubled. That leaves very little time for projects and fun things to do. I am always in the bilge of someeleses boat. I have 3 other boats that are smaller and I use one for my business. That is all I need. I am an honest person and will stand behind what I say. So if anyone wants a soild little boat for the family, here she is!

An 8.1 is a 496 not a 454 (7.4).

Looks like skools pic.

Yeah, Im sorry, Its a Trojan Express Cruiser. It looks alot like Skools boat pic. She is a good boat. As of this writing I have one of my guys cleaning her out on the inside. Putting brand new carpet in. She has a beam of 10' 2", an ample amount of fishing space. The inside is quite large despite she is a 25 footer. I am just trying to unload some boats. I will keep my steplift, I was going through a mid-life brain fart even thinking about unloading her...LOL! I will have some pics as soon as I can. I have several inspections this week so, maybe on the weekend. By the way how do I post pics?
