Up for sale is this classic Penn Yan Blue Fin 23 center console in good condition. This boat has been stored for 6 years due to an estate situation. The previous owner had repowered the boat two seasons before his death so the current motor is said to have low hours. Since my purchase I have "moved up" and no longer use this boat so she is for sale. The vessel has a HUGE deck area for fishing. The hull is the Penn Yan tunnel drive design which is said to be able to cruise through water as shallow as 18 inches. All and all a great designed boat that will need some restoration to bring back to it's full potential. HULL: The hull is in good condition with the normal scrapes and dings that would be expected on a hull of this vintage. there is a cracked area in the gel coat on the aft starboard corner which appears to be from a void in fiberglass under the gel coat from manufacturing. This should be a simple fix with some filler and gel coat, and paint. None of the other scrapes affect the integrity or performance of the hull. The bottom has anti fouling paint. TOPSIDE: The topsides are in good condition. Most of the topside areas are a bit dirty from storage but have no significant fiberglass damage. There is some rubbing on the rub rail but is strictly a cosmetic issue. The bow rail is in good shape without breaks or bends but some of the bases and stations are corroded and need replaced. The aluminum hard top is sound and in good condition with some flaking paint. COCKPIT: The cockpit area is a wash down design but there are areas where the decks are soft and will need some repair in the future. There are a number of hatches and doors on the decks that are all in place except for one. Some of the deck hatches are too soft and will need some repair. The seats will need recovered but they will make good patterns for a template. There are a few stress related cracks in the dash area gel coat but nothing that will compromise the integrity of the deck. ENGINE & COMPONENTS: The motor is a 230 hp MerCruiser / GM which is basically a 350 cu with a 2 barrel carburetor.. The engine is was repowered before the storage period and is said to have two season of use. The motor is fresh water cooled and looks to be in good condition with the exception of surface rust and peeling paint. I have not attempted to start the engine and it is being sold "as is". TRAILER: The trailer is a galvanized Load Rite ez loader type roller with tandem axels. The boat fits well on the trailer and it appears in good condition. The tires have some weather checking but nothing significant. The trailer brakes have been disconnected and will need serviced to make in working condition. If you do not want or need the trailer I will keep it and subtract $1000.00 off the total purchase price.

If you are an interested buyer and unsure of the true condition I suggest you come inspect yourself or hire a surveyor to represent you with an inspection. The boat is sold with a clear NJ Boat Title. Please check with your Motor Vehicle Agency BEFORE buying to make sure that all the paperwork provided will be sufficient for a successful transfer of ownership.

If you should bid with a low rating I will cancel your bid. I appreciate new ebay users but it seems of late that there are many low rating bidders who do not follow through with sales. Please do not be offended but rather understand the issue to keep relisting due to these individuals. Please check this one out and Bid To Win as we are selling this boat. I will require the payment format to be followed to complete the sale. Sorry to sound like a jerk but I had to list an item 4 times to get a successful sale last month due to bidders who should be kicked off this site. Thanks for looking, SNACK
