SOLD!! For Sale 2000 Hewes Craft 163 Sea Srunner

Post by Dave » Sat Jun 13, 2015 9:40 am

Hi All,

It's been about a year and a half since I was last here, I hope everyone is doing great. I never thought I'd say this and all is well with me but I'm selling my boat thanks to some financial hardship. Here is the info;

Ready for fun in the sun and the upcoming crab and pink salmon season!!!

2000 Hewes Craft 163 Sea Runner in excellent condition!!!

This boat comes with a 2001 75 hp Honda motor (serviced every year) and 2000 EZ Loader galvanized trailer with new bearings. I've washed this boat inside and out and flushed the motor after every use and it's always been garaged. It comes with the fully enclosed Hewes Craft canvas (green) with sides and rear zipper door to stay out of the elements.

There are two floor storage compartments, either of which can receive a live-well or fish box. I've added two Hewes Craft bench seats which provide comfort for additional guests and abundant storage. The motor has a Davis Happy Troller installed to allow slow trolling for Chinook or Kokanee. Plate up provides trolling speeds for silvers or other species looking for faster presentations. Top speed is 32 mph so pulling a skier or tube is a snap!

I'm selling my boat with my two mounted Scotty electric downriggers, Lowrance X85 fish finder, Garmin GPS and manual compass so no worries in the fog. Two Rod holders, downrigger ball holders with two downrigger balls. Anchor with 100' of spooled rope. I am throwing in my salt tackle box filled with salmon tackle, 2 nets, and I think I have two rods I'm gonna add. There is also a bilge pump, windshield wiper, air horn, fire extinguisher, & flares, and new Cabala's life vests all required by WA State law. This boat is also unsinkable with manufacture installed flotation, The fuel tank gauge doesn't work and the trailer needs new tail lights which I haven't had time to replace. I will take $150.00 off for the tail lights if it's purchased before I get to it.

Folks, Hewes boats are one of the best built welded aluminum boats on the market and the Honda motor will start every time and not let you down. I spoke with Lee at Tom and Jerry's boats and motors in Anacortes and he told me these boats hold their value and this boat would sell on his lot for $19,500. I'm asking 15,500. OR a reasonable offer.

I've caught more salmon, crab, and trout on this boat than I can count but financial hardship is forcing me to sell my boat which I thought I would have forever. I live close to Lake Stevens and am happy to provide a test drive for serious inquiries. I'm also happy to email additional pictures. Please feel free to call or text me at 425-760-1569. Thank You. Dave

Hey there. Long time no see. Hope everything works out for you. You were one of the reason I moved to Camano Island all those years ago. A nice greeting made the difference.
