1996 BAYLINER CAPRI 1950XL SPORTS BOWRIDER Legendary Mercruiser 4cyl 3L inboard with Alpha one sterndrive This boat has been meticulously maintained and is in immaculate condition inside and out (and not just for its age!). This boat came from a deceased estate and was stored in a shed for almost 20years with an ignition problem. Hence, the reason for its excellent condition. I bought this a few years ago and found and fixed the problem. She now runs perfectly.
All ignition components have been replaced with guinuine Mercruiser parts. Powered by the original near new ‘turn-key’ 135hp+ 3L 4cylinder Mercruiser motor (realistically this motor produces well over 150hp+ on 98 Octane fuel!). The 3L Mercruiser motor has done less than 15hours (just enough for running-in and tuning). All fluids and parts have been replaced with genuine Mercruiser product and the engine has been professionally tuned for maximum horsepower. The engine is cranked by a brand new state-of-the-art 440cc AGM Marine Battery which can be flattened to zero and recharged over and over again without harm.
There is also a total disconnect removable key switch for added safety against fire or theft. The leg is in as-new condition having been serviced, new impeller and new anodes fitted. The torquer motor will allow you to load up your boat with people and still have enough power to pull multiple skiers and tubers with ease. This boat does 45+ knots so the scenery comes up pretty quick! Yet is VERY economical, (unlike a similar sized outboard).
The hull has been fitted with "Smart Tabs'' which are automatically controlled hydraulic trim tabs that get the boat quickly on the plane, prevent bow rise, stabalises the boat over wake and chop and provides better fuel economy. (Not pictured). If you think outboards are ‘the way to go’, then think again. Outboards put the weight too far aft and make the boat pitch and hobby-horse though the water because the balance is all wrong. Simply put, these boats were designed for an inboard engine not a ‘tail dragger’.
Inboards are more reliable, have better fuel economy and provide easier maintenance and longer life. Maintenance is more accessible and so much simpler. This boat has only ever seen fresh water all its life and garaged and covered when not in use. All of the vinyl in the interior of the boat is in excellent condition. The hull has been professionally cleaned, buffed, polished and waxed.
The bilges are just as immaculate. There is also a great foldable ladder and swim board. And enough room upfront for four people. Even the original Capri trailer matches the boat. The trailer now has brand new galvanised wheels, plastic mudguards and brand new Light Truck Tyres.
(Not pictured). The trailer has brand new marine-grade gel-sealed tinned-copper wiring and state of the art fully submersible led lighting (no stopping to take the lights off!) and absolutely NO wiring problems in the future. New fully-sealed SKF marine-grade stainless wheel bearings with high-temp marine grease to ensure longer life and are virtually maintenance free. There is a fused 12Volt outlet on the passenger side for charging phones, tablets etc. Handheld Spot Light etc.
Or even a small 12V electric fridge. The front covers are serviceable and the rear ''newish'' Tan coloured camper is good but I’m throwing in a brand new set of rear camper covers (Blue) and brand new Isinglass clear side-curtains that have never been on the boat and a brand new high-quality silver weather proof storage cover. This is a very affordable and very popular Bowrider that has been underused and well looked after and a bargain at this price. It is licensed to take 5 people and would make aa very affordable and very fun family day boat. Better value than a new boat with better-than-original specifications and everything is new or near new but at a third of the original price.
Other than rego, there is nothing to spend. We can even help with professional interstate transport if that is required. Note: Neither the boat nor the trailer are registered. But are ready for rego. In your state.
