Can you share more pictures of the boat?

 

[seadude]

I've only taken one picture recently of the boat this spring while I was installing the new bimini top.
Boat has always been stored out of the water and flushed after each use.
Here it is on its current floating dock on the Hudson river.



While I don't have more pictures, a potential buyer's expectations should be that it is in nearly new condition (maybe a little dirty now).
Here are representative pictures and info from this forum: https://jetboaters.net/threads/new-2016-yamaha-e-series-options-described-with-lots-of-photos.7255/

Bumped to top due to price drop!

Aloha, would love to see more pics of the actual boat. Listing of any upgrades, and reason for Bimini being replaced please?

Are you traveling from Hawaii to NJ to buy my boat
Boat is basically stock, nearly flawless and unfortunately no more pics but no disappointments either.
Bimini was replaced with the charcoal version because I thought it looks better than the tan and I wanted to keep the boat looking mint.

rkim - this probably the best way to proceed in your case:
I have some local people interested, if they end up waiting until spring to decide (very possible), boat will be stored at Yamaha dealer for the winter who could inspect it for you. I'll be in touch if that is how things work out.

How do you like that floating dock? I’ve always wondered if they scratch the bottom at all? How much depth do you need to operate? Do you need to pull it out when water freezes, and if so how much of a chore is that?

That's the Wave Armor jet boat port and it works pretty well, everything the boat touches is rubber or plastic so no scratches. The "keel" on the newer boats like mine puts more concentrated weight on the bottom rollers so I definitely can't launch w/o help. A couple feet of depth is probably the minimum to avoid interference problems. I am actually renting it from the marina so I'm not sure what they are going to do with it over the winter but I'm glad I don't have to deal with it!

@seadude What marina was this Wave Armor boat dock used? I would be curious to talk with them about it, as I'm thinking of getting one.

How hard is it to push the boat off the port? I’m up in the air about getting a Wave Armor boat port or an airdock lift.
