Price ??
Russ - 5-8-2010 at 09:45 AM
Sorry! 13,000usd

Just measured the boat from transom to the bow and it was 23' Not 21'. I made the change in the starting post too. Come on now someone must need a
great boat or know someone who does. I hate to see it in the garage. Seas are suppose to calm down in a couple of days and you can see it out looking
for dorado off Punta Chivato. Or you could call Steve and maybe get a ride.
Edit: It does catch fish!

Russ , I thought this boat had a sukuki 4 stroke that was a 135 hp . Is the 100 enough?

None of the pics here or in the link give a good shot of the seating in front of or behind the console. Is that a leaning post or a bench of some
type? How many will it that leaning post/bench seat? What about in front of the console? Is it an ice chest with a cushion, another bench or ?????
What's the fuel capacity?
To Merino..............is 100 enough for doing what?
Always preferred the VHS radios to the betamax ones............

Merino, this boat was designed by Lupe Diaz for anywhere from a 75 on up and I have been on a ton of boats that had a 90 and it did very well. Lupe
told me that was his target motor for this boat when he designed it. Russ's boat has teh 100 hp Yamaha which is a local motor and exactly like my 115
except it is has carburetors instead of fuel injection which is a real plus with the Mexican gas which is really dirty. I have to use a 2 micron fuel
filter to keep my motor functioning but with my old motor with carburetors, I never skipped a beat.
So this is a dynamite combination for someone looking for one of the best designed boats for the Sea of Cortez. I have written a lot of information
about this hull and the manufacture of these boats and you can probably find that in the search function if you like.

Bench seat with storage under it behind the console. Coolers work good for addition seating. Also there are custom cushions for the bow too. Holds
about 50 gallons of fuel. With that 100 fuel sipping Yamaha that a very long time between fuel ups

I had an identical Diaz designed Panga with a center console that I sold two years ago. It had a Johnson 90 two stroke. It was plenty adequate for
getting you to your fishing destination and also to shelter or home if the weather came up in a hurry...Fast!
Carburetors are fine, but remember to put Sta-bill in the tank, especially during hot weather, and remember to add it and run it through the motor
before storage. Be sure to disconnect the gas line after running the gas through and run it dry.
I think the price is good, especially since the motor is a four stroke.
