Sportsman model 17’ All wood including transom is solid. All chrome in good shape. Upholstery and flooring appears new. We put this boat in the water in summer 2024. It ran strong on original KLC engine rebuilt according to notes in 2012. As expected, the boat leaked but not excessively. The bilge came on and ran for about 5 minutes. However, a bottom job would be wise. The nose of boat (see photo) and side railing running to it is is in need of repair. Everything else is nice on this boat. Boat hauls well on aftermarket trailer which is included.

This boat has an excellent pedigree with only five owners and was originally purchased in St Louis and Named “Spirit of St Louis.” Some original paperwork and some repair tickets are available.
