1996 Bayliner 1850LS 40th Anniversary Edition. 4.3 V6. Wakeboard Tower. We have owned this boat for the last 5 years, In that time we have added the following extras on top of what is already a good spec boat:- - Full Bimini/Camper Hood. This can be used to completely seal yourself into the boat, slide the seats down into 2 beds and you can sleep in it.
Alternatively you can use it in many configurations, by unzipping sections out, (the best thing we ever bought for our boat) (£2.5k) - Jobe/Origin Wakeboard Tower and Board Racks/Mirror. (£1k) - Stainless Steel Ballistic Prop (lower pitch which is better for Wakeboard speeds) WOT 40 mph. (£450) - All seats (except for bowrider cushions) are now heated with individual temperature controls,(these are professionally wired in) with tailored waterproof base covers, which can be removed and washed. (£700.00) - New Bluetooth remote control stereo with Xplod speakers (2021) (£300.00) - Seadek (equivalent) flooring throughout, no more soggy carpets, and it is a great feeling to walk on barefoot. (£400) The hull had a full machine polish 18 months ago, along with anodes replaced.
The engine AND leg have been fully serviced May 2021 (only used once since) with new fuel pump, belts, plugs, oil, filters. The leg also had impeller, oil and Bellows changed. The gimble bearing was changed in 2019. Bilge pump, Blower, Battery were all new in 2018. Trailer:--Bearings, Brake Shoes and Cables (they are now stainless steel cables) were replaced in May 2021, and have done one journey to Windermere/Nottingham since.-We have altered the beds on the trailer and put a large roller upfront, along with strong guiding poles to now make this a 'Drive on/off Trailer' which makes it so easy, you can launch/retrieve this boat now on your own.On the winch platform we have made a step so you can get in and out.-Lockable Hitch, Spare Wheel.
This boat has served our purpose well, but the family are now growing up and we cant see us using this anymore, so it is time to sell for someone to enjoy it as much as we have. The boat is situated in Nottingham and we can place the leg into a large water barrel to show it running. I have videos on my phone of us using the boat and show its performance and the wake etc, Im more than happy to whatsapp these to you. Aside from all the extra goodies above, we have thoroughly maintained this boat, and absolutely EVERYTHING works/operates on this boat, as it should. PLEASE BE ASSURED THIS IS A TURN KEY 'READY TO GO' BOAT, put some fuel in it and have some fun.
You are more than welcome to come and view. Unfortunately, we all experience timewasters,, and through my daily work/business I have to endure them,, SO, may we kindly ask you dont waste our time, as we would never want to waste yours,, In other words,,, STUPID OFFERS/MESSAGES WILL BE IGNORED. We could even deliver this boat for a small fee, if this helps the buyer, BUT, payment would need to be made before this boat leaves our property. If you need anymore info (extra photos/videos/questions) please get in touch. Many Thanks, Matthew phone Aside from all the extra goodies above, we have thoroughly maintained this boat, and absolutely EVERYTHING works/operates on this boat, as it should.
Extra note:- Forgot to mention, we also had a Hummingbird Digital Depth Gauge correctly fitted (it is the left hand bottom gauge on the dash photo)
