Boat Type: Rigid Inflatable
Quicksilver 430HD SIB complete complete with, Mariner 25hp outboard motor, road trailer, bench seat, oars, petrol tank and connections in fact everything you need to get out on the water. I'm only selling as have upgraded this year to a larger boat. These are very strong boats, with rigid wood floor and an inflatable keel. We have used it for a number of years on estuaries and around the coast and it will easily plane and pull an adult on a knee board. Its approximately 17 years old and I've owned it from new.
The outboard was second hand (ex.RNLI). Its starts and pumps water well and and has been dry stored since last summer. It could probably do with a service this year. These boats have 3 separate tubes making them very safe. The floor is removable and the boat can be rolled up and stored away.
I had the trailer refurbed last year with new hitch and bearings and wheels/tyres. The bad bits - There are a couple of patches and running repairs that I have put on over the years, not very pretty but they do the job. There is a very slow leak on the one side. All this means is that once you have inflated it will last all day but when you come back the next day it will need topping up. I'm sure anyone with a bit of time could track down the leak and patch.
As stated, I recommend the engine is serviced before heading out but we used it daily for 2 weeks last summer. If you are looking for a pristine boat and engine then this isn't the one for you, but if you are looking for a great family boat to get you out on the water complete with everything you need at a bargain price you've found it. If you have any questions then just ask and Ill do my best to answer them as honestly as possible. If you would like to come and view then that's not a problem, in fact I would prefer it! We are based about 3 miles from J6 M5.
Good luck with bidding.
