what do you mean -- front platform is cracked?? is it structual?? how long is the boat?? looks like a good deal...where is it??

[jim laing]

There are three fiberglass platforms (or decks) that are mounted to the aluminum boat floor - front, middle & rear. The front platform has a small crack right at the base of the seat pedestal. I put an aluminum plate under the pedestal base to bridge the crack.

This boat is 16' long and is located in Southern Illinois right outside of St. Louis.

Here's a look at the front platform. Overall this drift boat is in really good condition and has been well cared for. Always stored indoors.

I've seen the boat, it is in great condition just like it looks in the picture.

Jim,

I think we chatted briefly on the NFOW this October I was the guy in the grey Clackacraft skiff with all of the rug rats running around catching crawdads below the falls. The boat looked to be in great condition and that is a great price. Good luck with the sale.

Hi Sean,

Nice to meet you on the NFOW - You piloted the falls with pin-point accuracy on low water AND with a load of family in your Clack. Very impressive!
