    2002 SANTE For Sale

    Well, it is with a heavy heart that I post this today. We have decided to sell. I don't have a crew to ride with and my only driver I trust with my boat is my wife. She can't really do that and watch out two kids, both 2 or under, so we are going to let it go and come back when the kids are a few years older. Anyway, on to the details.

    2002 SANTE
    - Excalibur 330
    - Full Ballast
    - Nice Stereo (2 amps, sub, tower speakers)
    - Perfect Pass
    - Shower
    - Heater (core is removed right now, but could be put back in)
    - Bimini
    - Keyless ignition
    - Docking lights
    - Upgraded Prop (and spare prop)
    - Tandem trailer with surge brakes
    - Had a light bar on the tower that I took off. I still have it and will go with boat.

    The number one reason I bought this boat was the unique color combo with the matching deck color. I have never seen another like it. I know some guys will consider driving very long distances for the right boat, so I am going to be completly honest and try to describe any flaws. There are some chips in the gel near the bow and then a few near the transom. I bought the color matching gel from Nautiqueparts.com to fix, but have not got around to it yet. The rear seats seams have come apart. I wanted to replace them, but the wife said let it ride, especially seeing we had little ones on the boat walking on the seats. The digital gauges don't work, of course, so unless you hook it up to a computer, there is no way to prove the hours to you (at least not that I am aware of), but based on what the previous owner told me and my use, I think round 700. Water temp gauge and depth gauge work, but are way off. One of the sending units for the wedge tanks doesn't work, so gauge reads empty all the time. Like I said, I am being honest here, so probably not the best salesman, but theres nothing worse than driving even a few hours to see a boat that is in "excellent" condition and be disapointed. All these problems can be fixed for around $500-$1000, I think. Trailer needs new tires if towing long distance. I only ever go about 2 miles, but bearings have been kept up. I serviced the engine, trans, and vdrive last fall and new impeller this spring. Boat sits on a covered lift all summer and in a garage all winter. It is on the lift now and ready for a test drive. I am asking $31,000 for it obo. Located in 49341 zip code.

    Thanks, Adam

      Thanks. Like I said, the color sold me on it. You can fix all those minor things...it is really hard to re gel a boat to a good color!

        If yr boat was in CA, I wd take it , but I think the price can be a little lower.
        The color combo, is the best there is in my opinion.
        I envy the new owner.

              Thanks for the interest. However, my wife an I talked a little more and I think we are going to keep it at least for this season. I will update if we decide to sell.

                Nice ride. If I might make a suggestion. If you aren't looking to upgrade (meaning new) keep it long term. My wife and I have a baby on the way and like you don't have people to ride with. We purchased a new 210 last year and don't even plan to use it this year. We used the 196 once so far. I was talking about selling the 196 and she said. the baby will be 3 before we know it and we will want that boat back. I pay 2K a year between storage and insurance to have them.

                  Good advice. I have a 2 and 3 yr old. The last 3 years I think we made the lake 3 times total but this year we've been out a ton. They get old enough to enjoy the boat pretty quickly. My 2 year old (actually, he isn't even 2. He turns 2 on Sunday) came into our room this morning saying "wake. Wake." Meaning "lake." I said, "do you want to go to the lake?" "Uh-huh" with a head nod.

                  And I just happen to be off today!
