[gqchris]

Hey Guys,

Listing with my super clean 19.5 Baker Mod VP with low hour 300 Drag Motor.

I rigged it a year and a half ago. WOT Marine Cole and Kyle did all the work. Turn Key now. Super Clean. I am only selling due to owning two boats.

SO Many New Parts to List.

I'm willing to Separate Boat and Motor, 11k for Motor.

* Mercury Racing 300 Drag (2.5) / 315 hp (compression at 167-170 all cylinders)
- 1997 (rigged on boat in 2000)
- 20" Mid section
- Sportmaster lower
- Brucato ACU
- New reed valves and injectors near same time when Brucato unit was added
- - Alien Cowl - in near perfect condition
- As stated by previous owner Motor was rebuilt approx 5 yrs ago, incl. new pistons, rings, bearings, machine work by Rucks.
Approx 40 Hours on Motor Since Rebuild.

Injectors Flow Tested and Inspected when I rigged it on my boat a year ago.

*Al New Seastar Pro Hydraulic Helm and Steering
*New Steering Wheel
*All Wiring New - Fully Re-rigged the Whole Boat
*All New Billet Hardware

*Billet Ski Pole
*New Fuel Senders

*Fuel Pressure Gauge
*Bluetooth Stereo - (Nothing Fancy) - 2 Speakers - I prefer to listen to the 2 stroke!
*Custom Bimini
*Boat is Arizona Reg, Trailer is CA PRI
*Mazco 24 P Prop - 3 Blade Chopper
*Cocktail Seating so plenty of Room
*All New Bilge Pumps (3)
*New Windscreen - Updated and Smoked

Cons:
Some Gel Coat Beaching on the hull. Nothing Major.
Upholstery Still great shape, but it would be my next step in the upgrade process if I keep her. Again, full functional for many more seasons.
33 Years of Small Dings and Scratches that I inherited. Nothing major or structural


So much more to list. Everything has been done. Boat is turn Key. I always run 110 VP.

Not for the first time boater. Please have some experience if you are looking to get into this boat.

Boat was Walts son @ONE-A-DAY and I have the history of all the other owners back to original.

Ton of Receipt and Paperwork, Giant Folder.

Tons of Pics to Come as I move them From My Phone to Here.

Thanks sir. It really is a blast and if I had the room I would keep it for sure. The midrange punch is phenomenal.

Beautiful boat. Good luck with the sale

So cool what you did with this boat, Im tempted to buy it back, the engine alone should be in a museum, and I can only guess on what your bill was to do the re-rig, very impressive, you have issues like I do.

Thanks Walt! Ill make you a very tasty deal if ya want her back!

Yup definitely have issues. LOL...put it this way, the cost of the Re-rig and smaller Parts is what I am asking for the boat. But you know how that all adds up so fast!!

Not sure? It has a 20” Bass Mid not original to the motor. Still sounds bitchen on plane. But not like the 15 OS original.

Lots of tire kickers but no-one has come to bat yet.

Trust me, you cant have this much fun for this cheap and look cool at the same time Even the grumpy old man gate guy Jerry at Lake Havasu Marina compliments it every time I pull in!

Thats impressive, that guy is the perpetual crank.

 

[ONE-A-DAY]

Does the drag need AV gas or race?

LOL!!! so true! He tells me, "I always know its you cuz you got that big ass 3 bell hanging on the back!"

 

[gqchris]

Thats up for debate. I Use VP 110, but Kyle says AV is OK. The Spec Sheet says "Race Fuel"

 

[OldSchoolBoats]

Such a bad ass boat! What does the Brucato switch on the dash do?? Assuming it changes the tune on the fly??

Thanks Brotha. Yes it richens or fattens as desired. Could be handy if loading up idling thru channel etc. But honestly, this motor is so polite that I never need it.

I love firing her up. Gives me wood everytime. Lol. The 20” mid quiets her down a bit compared to the offshore. But she is crispy!

 

[gqchris]

Jump in the passenger seat guys and take a ride downriver!

Wind was about 25mph this day. Boat loved it.

Sorry for wind noise and not motor noise. Lol. Old go pro is all I had.

 

[rivermobster]

Packin air...

This would be an Awesome ski boat as well. Will pop you right up and have a nice flat wake to shred.

 

[gqchris]

Definitely, someone told me they wanted to ski behind when I first rigged it. Has a brand new powder coated billet ski pole when someone wants to toss a rope around it!

stock drag is 26cc heads and gives you around 180psi cranking compression..merc wants you to play it REAL safe,but 110 is over-octaning believe it or not...I detuned my drag to 170PSI (only cause I do a ton of river running) and mix 50/50 LL100 with 91 pump piss and NEVER had a prob...

Nice, so AV Gas is the ticket then? The previous owner had thinner head gaskets which accomplished same thing? But they were swapped back to stock before i took ownership.

thinner gaskets will give slightly more compression,but you have to measure your squish,cause it can cause pistons to "kiss" the heads!!the difference in octane requirements between thick and thin gaskets is irrelevant IMO

oops yea I meant thicker Gaskets. Good to know, thats why I prefer to run them as from factory. No kissing needed with the pistons! LOL
