Maxum 1700 Xr Bowrider 70hp 1991

Maxum 1700 XR Bowrider, 1991 Had this boat on my driveway for a very long time. Last used in the water 1998. Hull in very good condition, interior mostly in good condition, however some upholstery has come away in the bow (see pictures). Still have the pieces if required. Some electrics don't seem to work - courtesy lights, horn - feels like the switches.

Bilge pump makes a noise when switched on but don't know if it works as expected. Radio cassette does work, but only out of one speaker, and is pretty quiet. Engine is the original Force 70hp 3-cyl 2-stroke. Uses premixed fuel-oil mix at 50:1In 2007, engine had new CDI Electronics stator, new switchbox and new voltage regulator but has not been used since then, other than occasionally turned over on the driveway. When hooked up to some fuel, it started right up.

See video: https://youtu.be/BciX-pZ_Tqs No battery included - I jump started it from my car. Trailer is the original Escort model with overrun brakes. Structurally in decent condition, however tyres are old and cracked, one of them is missing one wheel nut, and they don't have much air in. Also: Hand brake release button is seized in the release position There is no spare wheel Winch seems very stiff, probably seized Jockey wheel is seized but will rotate to stowed position Worse part of trailer is that somebody has stolen the tow hitch, so it cannot be hooked up to a vehicle. See pictures.Uses 50mm drawtube.

I would suggest that the boat has to be collected on the back of a truck or similar. Comes with some spares and accessories: Bow spray deck (has a few minor discolouration marks) 30 litre external fuel tank (unused) Spare carburettor Spare HT leads (new)Fuel pump diaphragm (new)Prop bag (new) Life jackets (three I think, don't have them to hand at moment) Any questions please ask Sold as seen, no returns On 01-Apr-18 at 13:31:36 BST, seller added the following information: If video won't play on mobiles, please search Youtube for: Force 70hp 2 stroke start and brief run On 01-Apr-18 at 14:33:08 BST, seller added the following information: Sorry - bidders with less than 10 feedback will have their bids cancelled
