Crownline 180 Speedboat With Refurb 3.0 Mercruiser - Waterski Wakeboard Fishing

Moontide - 2001 crownline 180cd with newly rebuilt Mercruiser 3.0 inboard Complete package with everything you need to go boating! Great for watersports, fishing, cruising etc 18ft American made and imported originally to Dorset now lying near Truro, Cornwall. Heavy layup and high quality build, gets onto plane well and surprisingly dry and sea kindly for size/shape 100l fuel tank, cleaned out last year and currently empty. (Always been run on E5 and stabiliser added over winter) Elec Bilge pump, float switch and bilge blower 5 seats, swivel and adjustable captains chair, double seat reclines into sun lounger with storage underneath, 2x aft seat removable for additional space or engine access. Interior is showing its age in places with some cracking and stains but overall not bad condition for age.
Cup holders everywhere! Switches and gauges all working, trim gauge sometimes temperamental, horn doesn’t work. Original old tape player and speakers fitted but not working. Have a vhf unit to fit in its place but haven’t got round to it, will include in the sale. Large area up forward for storage, ski locker in the deck which gladly fits skis, Ringo and other stuff.
Center window hinges open for access to the bow with non slip textured gel coat on deck Carpet replaced last year but is slightly lighter shade than original, some marks but cleans up good with a pressure washer. (Protective plastic currently on there as in the photos) Decent stainless cleats all around and a towing eye for water sports on the transom Original gel coat all around, generally very good condition (just been waxed) but some scuffs mainly on the starboard side, one notable long scratch which has been repaired but colour match is off. Nothing structural or worrisome, purely cosmetic. Below the waterline it has been anti fouled in the past but in my ownership I have kept it without. Water stained brown but would clean up fine.
Alpha gen 2 leg in perfect working order, new hydraulic pump fitted 2018, all bellows, gear oil and impeller changed last year, gimble bearing changed 2020, engine aligned and UJ inspected at the same time. Solid exhaust tube fitted instead of rubber bellow. The prop currently fitted has seen better days and is functional but it could do with a new one and paint on the leg is flaking, so needs repainting at some point. Anodes could do with changing before launch. All cosmetic stuff.
Goes in and out of gear perfect, quiet running and no leaks. Engine is 3.0l 4cyl Mercruiser 135hp petrol This is essentially like triggers broom; almost every possible part has been replaced in the last 2 years and it has had a complete strip down and rebuild by Cornwall engine co just last year (£800 invoice to prove) which included head rebuild and pressure test, new main and big end bearings, cylinder hone and both main oil seals replaced. Valve clearance adjusted and full paint. New parts fitted are as follows: Starter motor Alternator Dampener crank pulley Manifolds Exhaust elbow Belts Distributor, coil, leads, spark plugs Oil pump Oil pressure sender, Temp sender, Fuel sender Gaskets all round Webber 38 carb conversion (cost over £500) much better running and reliability Electric fuel pump conversion with auto cut off oil pressure switch fitted 80ah Exide marine battery - new 2020 Engine oil and filters changed twice since rebuild Engine has run just 37.4hrs since being rebuilt and it runs like a dream! Extras included in sale: Various coils of rope, long and short Mooring strop and selection of shackles Boarding ladder 4x fenders, bow fender and marker bouy Anchor and 25m warp Coastal flare pack 2x fire extinguishers 2x waterproof handheld VHF and charging dock Local paper Nav chart (Nare to Dodman) Crownline hand bearing compass Navman fish finder/depth sounder (powers on but says transducer not detected?

Wheel clamp and tow hitch security lock for trailer Ratchet straps and Trailer board (not all lights working, needs attention) bring your own if hoping to drive away with it..

Any questions or additional photos just ask. I have loads of additional photos. Currently at home near Truro, on a trailer and can be run on muffs for inspection.
I will consider delivery for a non refundable deposit depending on where. She is essentially ready to launch and enjoy right away with everything you need to go boating. I have spent countless hours and £‘s on this boat over my 6 years of ownership and whilst she shows her age in places and there is some minor work to do, she is a well built, well maintained example which is sure to bring the new owner plenty of enjoyment for years to come..
