QR Code Link to This Post
I purchased the hull new in 2017 (2016 model year) and the Honda outboard new in 2016 (2015 model year). The boat has been garage kept most of its life, lightly used, and cleaned after each trip. This is a low-hours, weekend-use setup that hasn’t been run hard.
Package Details:
Boat (MD registered – title in hand):
• G3 1548 VBW fully-welded aluminum hull (2016)
• Very clean, solid condition
• Stable platform for crabbing, trotlining, and fishing
Outboard:
• Honda 15hp 4-stroke (2015)
• Purchased new in 2016
• Starts easily, low hours
• Always flushed and fuel run out after use
Trailer:
• Older trailer (approx. 2005), barn-kept for years
• Previously stored indoors; last few years in driveway
• Currently Maine-plated (no inspection, simple bill of sale registration)
Included Crabbing / Boating Gear (Extensive Package):
• 26 crab traps
• Two Captain Bruce professional trotlines (2 × 300 ft, never used)
• Trotline props (metal Captain Bruce + PVC option)
• Dip nets (including Captain Bruce heavy-duty net)
• Fish finder (new in box)
• Navigation lights (new, ready to install)
• Battery + new battery box with Honda charging setup
• Multiple fuel tanks + fuel line
• Life jackets, throwable cushions
• 2 paddles
• Dry boxes, gloves, measuring stick
• Manual bilge pump, plugs
• Trotline accessories (J-hook, basket, clam bags, etc.)
• Trailer hitch and ball for trailer
• Outboard stand (homemade)
• Additional gear included — full setup for someone ready to get on the water
Mechanical Note (fully transparent):
The outboard will need a thermostat service/replacement.
When the flush port was used, debris was pushed into the thermostat area, causing a clog. The motor has not been run since addressing that issue. Prior to that, it ran properly and was consistently maintained. This should be a straightforward fix for someone familiar with small outboards.
Summary:
This is a complete, well-equipped crabbing/fishing rig with a premium welded hull and Honda outboard. Ideal for someone who wants a solid platform with thousands in gear included, without starting from scratch.
Selling because I no longer have time to use it.
