Used 1981
Location:
Gainesville, FL
Description:

This is a 1981 Malibu SFT 10 Bobber. This watercraft was made by Dixie Fiberglass Products out of Winter Garden, FL. These are the same men that made the Sling Shots. When their plant burned down, you won't find any of these anymore as they went out of business. Right here is a connected to the producer. I have title to this watercraft. If I needed to describe the watercraft it would resemble a miniature Carolina Skiff design. , if you are looking for a fishing boat or a jon boat that does not take up much space in the lawn and is easy to introduce and dock this is your watercraft.. Will certainly enter any place you require to get to fish and guaranteed no leakages like the majority of the aluminum watercrafts. I would recommend getting a bimini top which would be easy to set up. http://boat-manufacturers.findthebest.com/l/2656/Dixie-Fiberglass-Prod. Right here is a link to the NADA:. http://www.nadaguides.com/Boats/1984/Sling-Shot-Dixie-Fiberglass/SFT-10-BOBBER/10167664/Values. I had actually acquired this boat with the intentions of using it at my river property as it was manageable to lug and stow in the bed of my truck. I chose to go aluminum as I have a great deal of cypress knees and such and wanted to just drag my fishing watercraft into the river. Considering the rarity of this boat I decided to bring it back to life. I used Kleen Strip Fiberglass Paint Stripper and heavily removed the old flaking and cracking layers of interior paint. http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/14073XXXXXX?lpid=82. As you can see the work isn't cheap and it is an extremely slow-moving process that I invested a great deal of time into. After stripping I then sanded and sanded and sanded. After all that sanding I put 2-3 coats of Rustoleum Top Side Primer:. http://www.amazon.com/Rust-Oleum-207014-Marine-Fiberglass-1-Quart/dp/B000C025GA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=140467XXXX&sr=8-1&keywords=rustoleum+topside+primer. Each coat was used various days and allowed to dry entirely. I then utilized Rustoleum Topside Paint (Gloss White) and did the very same 2-3 coats. If needed, I have a bit left over for touch ups. I didn't do much to the sides as I wanted to keep them original however I did sand all-time low and put 4-5 coats of Bullseye on. As for the Trailer it included the aluminum watercraft I purchased. It was home made by a professional welder and includes genuine size tires, designed tilt action to permit draining water and launching. Came with a sturdy axle and new bearings. I did put plenty of coats of rustoleum guide on the frame and afterwards put some rustoleum aluminum color paint with real metal flakes in it. The person had actually provided me a heavy responsibility winch set up that had not been set up. I stripped it down totally and sanded then primered then repainted a black gloss which matches a few other pieces and afterwards installed with new bolts ect. I likewise stained the wooden bunks and put brand-new carpeting on them. I bought a new magnetic tail light system which is still in the packing material. This trailer will certainly require to be signed up as a home made trailer which is very simple. As for the motor, it is a 2000 Mercury 2.5 hp 2 Stroke Made in Japan. This is a sweet motor and I simply cleaned the carb and set up a new plug so it prepares to go. A small tank of fuel goes a long means with this motor. Comes with initial Operation and Maintenance Manual. This motor is basic and not expensive but extremely reliable. I am uploading plenty of photos to take a look at and there will certainly be a link to youtube to see the motor in action. The cost is firm. I would want to sell the boat and trailer just and keep my engine. http://youtu.be/kCeOD60MC7I. This is the Youtube link above.
