My New Blue Fin

[triumphrick]

Here we are, a 1986 16'2" Blue Fin HIN BFFSP741E686 1986 Evinrude 50 VRO, 1986 EZ Loader roller trailer. She is sweet. Just brought her home last night from a craigslist ad. I bought from the original owner, lived in Michigan untill last year. He kept is stored during the winters and only made a few trips during the summer. Never seen saltwater. This boat is flawless...just needs some trailer paint and a couple of tires. Here's the pics......enjoy!

Nice find. From what i can tell the blue fin boats don,t leak.

Thanks, PJ..we took her out for a maiden run a few weeks back and I was surprised at how little water was in the bilge. Pump never came on, and I suspect some water was from rain that leaked thru a poor fitting cover. I have garaged it and will be looking next time out to see how we do.

I take mine out in the salt all the time. If you do just remember to rinse her off well. Every one Ive talked to have said there a good aluminum boat. Mines 20 years old and still looks new.

Please pay attention to the date of the thread you are responding too. Rick has long since replaced that boat.
