Boat Information
  • On TrailerNo
Additional Information: This is a 2005 Triumph runabout on a trailer. It is being sold by: The Boat Shop of Spokane, 11624 E Montgomery Spokane WA 99206. According to the listing, it was to be used in a boat rental program, but the dealership decided not to do the rental program. It reprtedly only has five hours on the boat and is being sold with the remaining warranty. The seller, in an e-mail message to me this morning, indicated the following: "I will shrinkwrap the boat and load it on a truck for free if you find a shipper."

All dimensions below are for boat, motor and trailer.

I noted below that insurance is required for the driver. I do not want to assume the risk orf damage during transport. I would also expect that the transport would be on a larger trailer given the distance.
