Howdy all,
Life takes odd turns sometimes, and mine has, has well. I don't fish near as much as I used to, which is why I sold the other Clacka I bought a couple years back. My health isn't the greatest, and a full day of rowing pretty much wears me out for a couple days following. I still love to fish, but just not in the nasty weather and wearing myself out to where I'm wasted for a couple days. No, I'm not "terminal", but my illness can make life miserable if I let myself get run down...I hate being miserable!
I know I just bought this boat last March, but it has only been in the water less than a dozen times since. I took it back to the factory for a couple things that they needed to fix from it's production, and while it was there they gel coated the chines again, basically making it better than new.
The hull on this boat is as clean as they come...a couple little scratches down the center of the bottom, chines are
purrfect! This is the "Cadillac" of the ClackaCraft lineup...it's big, comfortable and handles like a dream.
2007 18' ClackaCraft ClackaMax (18' 3" centerline measurement) with a 60" bottom.
Adams Custom Galvanized Trailer
9 1/2' Carlysle composite oars
Full custom-fit cover
Full adjusting bench seat in front, full storrage beneath
"Tractor Style" padded rowers seat with adjustable bench with full storage beneath
Rear seat on a storage pedestal, with removable support stand
Foot release 30# anchor and 100' of proper anchor rope, includes 50% reduction pully
Spare tire on trailer mount
3 ea. Folbe rod holders. 2 in flush mounts.
There's more, but I can't think if it all now. The boat is in mint condition,
but is currently stored outside. It was stored inside all last winter and Spring.
This boat, with the upgrades for the trailer, etc. was over $11,000 new just this year. I am asking $9,000.
If you have never rowed a ClackaMax, you will find they draw LESS water than the 16', and with a rower and 2 people up front it pulls plugs as well as any 16' out there. the boat can FISH up to 4 people without difficulty, and is rated at 6 total passengers. It can hold bunches of camping gear, and there is a nice floor area between the rowers bench and front seats where you could easily set up lounge chairs for doing tours. 4 passengers up front, one in back PLUS the rower.
It's a hellofa boat for most NW rivers!
