It's been a good few years with my Outrage 18, but I will be moving back to California in June from Florida. At this point I think it is going to be easier to sell my boat instead of moving it across the country. What I have: 1983 Outrage 18 with a 1999 Suzuki DT140 (2-stroke, 140 HP) -Teak gunnels The motor has recently been in for service and a spark check and compression check has come back great. The mechanic has told me the outboard runs excellent. I had a marine surveyor do a full report on the boat when I bought it 2 years ago and I have the PDF of that report. I had the basic plastic swivel seats on the boat, and just recently both of them have cracked to the point where they broke and I do not have them on the boat anymore.

Your Outrage will go for considerably more $ in CA than FLA, Outrage 18's are hard to come by in California. If you plan to stay in boating, bring your boat with you. |

Thank you for the replies. Yes, that is mine on ebay right now. I was just going to put it on there to get a feel for how much it is really worth. I cannot believe the interest I have gotten on it. The ad has 75 watchers right now. Right now I have a buyer through craigslist, so we'll see how that goes. He has a check on the way, but I won't say it's sold until it is out of my garage. I plan to stay in boating, but I am going to really shop boats this time around. I love the classic whaler, but I think I want to move up to something bigger. I am so paranoid about owning an '83 whaler. I am always hoping the fuel tank is ok, that the transom is still solid, etc. I haven't had any reason to think there is something wrong, but paranoia is great amongst me when I have a boat. hah |
