Additional Information:

Plymouth Pilot 18ft, includes cuddy and galvanised trailer. The trailer has had two new tyres and a new winch and jockey wheel, the bearings are in good condition having had bearing buddies on them from before I bought the boat.

The boat was bought as a project but I haven't got the time to complete it hence it's for sale.

It has new d shaped fendering on it and a new stainless fuel tank to fit before it goes, it obviously requires a deck and engine to be installed, I had planned to have it as an open boat so it is sold as seen with the old rotten deck removed.

I have a brand new prop shaft to go with it, there's a new cutlass bearing installed in the stern tube as the old one was heavily worn.

The are two small holes to fill one of which was to be for a drain plug that hasn't been fitted and the other hole will need to be filled. The second hole being drilled in the wrong place.
I have drilled out the hull for a Blake's seacock which I have yet to fit which will go with the boat.

I'm not sure of the year of the hull as I couldnt find any dates but I think it could be early 80's.

I have a Volvo penta 2001 8hp engine and gearbox including flex coupling and brand new propellor which came from TS Norris who advised the size and pitch from the hp, Revs, length of boat etc. I haven't seen the engine run as it was bought for this and I haven't got round to having it fitted although it's in fairly clean condition.

I can provide more pictures of the engine or any part of the boat.

I was told the engine had come from a small yacht that had fairly low use before being stored ashore for a number of years, I paid £1600 for it but as it's a relative unknown because I haven't seen it run I am not looking for the full value of it.

The original engine was a 6.5hp lister which I removed as it had a mechanical gearbox and was air cooled.

I would like £4,100 ono for the boat inc trailer, cuddy, fuel tank, shaft, fuel filter, Blake's seacock. If the engine was to be included £5100 ono which also includes the brand new propeller.
If it's within a reasonable distance I could help with delivery.

DO NOT SEND MONEY TO SELLERS YOU CANNOT VERIFY AS GENUINE.

If possible, travel to view the boat or equipment yourself and only buy once you are happy with it.
