tidewater Posted September 13, 2023 Report Share Posted September 13, 2023 For Sale 1992 18.5’ Maverick Master Angler (project boat) I am selling my 1992 Master Angler. This is a project boat for whomever is looking for a classic Maverick hull in good shape. My intent was to rewire the entire boat about 5 years ago. Much of the wiring has been completed for running lights, bilge pumps, live well, new switch panel installed and wire run to bow for trolling motor. All mechanics were removed under the console (hydraulic trim tabs and Jackplate). Also a new hydraulic steering assembly installed on the motor. All parts removed are boxed and ready to reassemble. The jackplate hydraulics worked when removed but the trim tabs did not (maybe just switch?, Intent was to replace with electric tabs. The hull is solid, no cracks or holes. The deck has many spider cracks as expected in a boat built in ’92. The motor is a 150 hp Yamaha 1995 and was running very well when last used. Trailer was rebuilt with new bunks and axle with very little use since then Includes many extras from anchor and line, boat hook, landing net, to packaged life vests, fold down seats etc. I have clear title to both boat and trailer located in Centreville, Maryland. I purchase this boat from ‘’Tarpon Terry” who was one of the original redeemed members on the forum years ago and trailered it home from Key Largo. I’m selling because of "my" old age (80) and several health issues that don’t allow me to proceed with this project. Price $5,000 mav sale.docx 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoneyB Posted October 26, 2023 Report Share Posted October 26, 2023 lol that’s just me washing off the sanding dust. The hull was in nice shape except for the oyster rash. I plan on painting the color on the underside as well.. I guess it’s about time start that thread ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whichwaysup Posted October 26, 2023 Report Share Posted October 26, 2023 Definitely time for that thread, HoneyB! Why paint her? That gelcoat is SHINY! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoneyB Posted October 26, 2023 Report Share Posted October 26, 2023 That gel coat is wet, you know like people take photos when they try to sell boats on line . the boat has some gouges here and there. and the bottom was cut up pretty good. Why Paint. well the boat has been wet sanded and polished at least once the guy I bought it from had wet sanded and polished at least once years ago. the bottom has had one new coat of gel coat at some point and was still pretty cut up. So why paint? I have a vision! leaving imperfections in the boat and making it shiny just doesn't work for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
