16 foot privateer bay boat. Completely rebuilt over the winter of 23-24. Nee floor, new stringers, new console, new running lights and bilge pump. 40 Honda four stroke.
Carbs could probably use a cleaning, boat runs fine as is. Boat has six gunnel rod holders on each side and three rod holders either side of the console. Would make an awesome little inshore boat or duck hunting boat.
Title for boat do not have title for trailer. Asking $10,500

Due to the corona crap, charter fishing was shut down. The illustrious governor has allowed charter fishing in VA to open back up on May 15th. While we are excited about the opportunity, non boating people put a bunch of requirements on us to protect against DaRona. One of the things we have to do is post how we plan to clean the boat.

Gonna leave this right here.
