    Description

    1958 Larson Thunderhawk 14' fiberglass boat with new outboard. I bought this boat in 2019. I had a new Mercury 40 HP outboard, controls, and prop professionally installed by Tacoma Marine Repair. I bought the blue tooth control (VesselView Mobile Module) and installed it. I broke the engine in on Lake Washington. Because of my schedule, it didn't get driven at all. The motor only has 3.6 hours on it. (See picture of VesselView.) Alas, my schedule and health did not allow me to use it, and it has been in the garage since July 2019. The trailer is old, but the previous owner rebuilt most of it. The fiberglass is pretty rough, but it is a neat looking boat with "fins" and very seaworthy. The motor is basically new. It has a partial canvas roof with clear side panels--all removable. It comes with some of the safety equipment. Boat and trailer license up-to-date.
    Updated Information:
    Theengine is a four stroke. The boat and trailer weigh about 1,500 to 2,000lbs.
    Ispent ,700 on the new motor, controls, and electronic blue tooth module. Themotor has less than 4 hours on it. The main value in the boat is the motor et.al, but there is some value in the trailer and boat. The trailer is old, butthe last owner rebuilt it. She kept the boat on Lake Union (Seattle) during thesummers at her houseboat. I'm not sure if she bought it from an owner in MN orif she bought it from someone that brought it here, but it wasn't here long beforeshe bought it as there was something weird about the title to the trailerbecause they are licensed differently in MN.
    I can only assume the boat has never been in salt water as neither her nor Itook the boat into salt water. She sold it to me with the motor un-repairable.
    I owned a 34' classic wood yacht, so I know nothing about fiberglass boats. Iwould say the fiberglass needs a complete restoration. The boat is seaworthyand looks cool, but the fiberglass is rough. I’ve added close-up pictures. Thatsaid, I listed the boat because I was told there is a shortage of outboards andboats because of the pandemic. Someone may buy it just for the motor andcontrols. I would consider that only on the condition I kept the boat because Iwould hate to see it destroyed. I would pay to have the fiberglass redone, butI don't even know where to start. I've been working and going to law school forthe last three years (one more to go) so no time for anything.
