2004 Maverick HPX 15 w/ 2012 Yamaha F40

[gigabite285]

 

Meticulously maintained/garage-kept 2004 Maverick Mirage HPX-15V (~400 original hull hours). Repowered in 2012 with fuel-injected Yamaha F40LA (221 hours). This boat has been used as a fly fishing skiff in Texas and Louisiana by me (second owner) since 2006 and has had numerous tasteful and unique upgrades. The boat has been “babied” and is in incredible shape for a 2004. This boat is no longer made by Maverick.

 

Asking $18.5k OBO - Located in Houston, TX

Key Features of the HPX-15V

• Notorious for ability to pole in shallow water comparable to an HPX-T but run much smoother in rough water.

• Short length of this boat makes it a great tender boat for yachts and sportfishers, and the boat/trailer is short enough to fit in most garages without a swing/removable tongue, unlike most of its peers.
