1987 Boston Whaler Revenge 20 W/T 2011 150 E-Tec (30hours)

I am listing this boat for a good friend of mine. The boat is out of Ohio and it was a typical Freshwater trailer queen prior to Sal bringing it to New Jersey.  While the boat survived Sandy, his house did not and it has been ordered to be torn down and rebuilt to new Governement Standards.  Because of this process and the costs with it, Sal is not going to be using the boat for a number of years and would rather see it go to someone who is going to use and appreciate it.  He is asking $14,000 obo are willing to consider a trade for a nice Montauk.  I honestly think he is giving the boat away at that price but, I know he needs to move it.  If you are interested you can email Sal at salfromchatham@gmail.com or myself at jrohlfing@gmail.com

Here is Sal's write up on his boat:

I am selling my 1987 Revenge 20 WT with near-new under-warranty Evinrude 150 eTec, with less than 30 hours. It is without a trailer.

I bought this boat from its original owner in Ohio last April, and it has been a fresh water mild usage babied boat for nearly all of its life. I re-powered her last June, bottom painted her for her first time, and have used it last season as a kiddie-shuttle and Barnegat Bay cruiser.

I paid $15,000 alone for the repower, with new gauges, cables, and controls.

She runs flawlessly, although shows her age with a fiberglass ding here or there. She is solid and safe however, and the engine has her on plane with head-snapping thrust. She will top out at 40 mph, but enjoys a real economical cruising at about 27 mph. I do not have fuel consumption figures, but the eTec is a fast, lightweight, and yet economical power plant for this boat, which has a 77 gallon tank. The floor is solid, and the hull is rock hard and steady.

If I were inclined to make this boat a queen before I sold her, I would replace one or both cabin roof hatches, replace the rubrail, refinish the teak trim, and do some very minor ding repair to the hull, and wax the heck out of her. I am not inclined to do that for time and logistical reasons.

I am selling her as my shore home has to be torn down and rebuilt. I am trying to get funds to help in that endeavor. Sandy has hit Normandy Beach particularly hard, including my entire area. My home won't be torn down and rebuilt this year. Perhaps it will by the time summer 2014 rolls around.

The boat is at McCarthy's Marine now, and is freshly cleaned and ready for a water trial. This boat has the potential to be a real beauty, whether you fish or cruise, is reliable with brand new power, and I have easily $25,000 into her.
