Hey guys. I have a 2014 Polaris RZR 570 that I am contemplating selling as I don't use it as much as I thought I would. I was going to use it for hunting, but now that I have a 4x4 truck I don't really need it for that either. So I posted it for sale, and got offered a boat ( i did mention I was open to boats).
The boat is a "2000 Trition TR-18" with a 150hp EFI Mercury. If I understand right, Trition stopped making TR-18 before 2000 so it's either a few years older and a TR-18, or a 2000 TR-186. Not sure yet. Haven't looked in person. From the pictures, everything looks in good shape. Here is the text from the ad.
"I have a 2000 Triton tr-18 (18ft) Bass boat with a 150hp fuel injected mercury outboard motor, a humminbird 958c gps fishfinder, a Lowrance elite-7x hdi gps fishfinder, and a mini kota maxxum pro 80. I am also including 2 World Class Sospenders high performance inflatables life jackets. These jackets are over $200 a piece! The boat is in mint condition it has been kept in a garage its whole life with a cover over it and everything on it is original except the trolling motor and fishfinders. Any and every time it was taken out on the water it was washed cleaned and motor flushed. The carpet is in near perfect condition and there are no rips or tears in the seats. I sent the motor back twice to the mercury factory to be tuned and completely serviced and have new injectors put in. This boat is in tip top shape and runs perfect. I got a new boat and don't have room or the need for 2 bass boats. It has updated bilge pumps in it, nearly new tires and new guide rails on the trailer. I am asking $10,500 and I am also looking for a nice camper and would be willing to trade! Feel free to call or text me. If I do not answer please leave me a message I will call you back! "
Anyone got any insight to if this boat is worth it? If we decide it may be, pending inspection, I'm going to take my Uncle with me since he's always owned a bass boat and I have never owned a boat, so he can help me look out for some things. I understand though that this thing is wood free so it shouldn't have rotted stringing or anytthing which was my biggest concern about used boats I looked at before.
