sailmaster39 · Posted: Thu Jan 15, 2015 12:00 am Post subject: F235 For sale Georgia $1,900

1990 F235 Wing keel, fresh water, located in Fort Gaines, Georgia [southwest Georgia] on trailer.
Boat sat in lake unused for 4-6 years.Needs a thorough exterior cleaning.a couple gallons of bleach and spic & span cleaner and she will show nice. Lightly used 9.9 evinrude motor included. Interior looks good ,I noticed 2 or 3 leaks that need to be fixed. Just rebed ports I believe.
I just bought the boat in November. Last week for the second time I drove from Delaware [900 miles] with a trailer. The trailer previously had a Oday 22 on it before I bought it. I was told it would fit the F235 with a slight modification , adjust bunks etc. The trailer is a little on the small size.I am not comfortable driving 900 miles back home on the interstate with this boat/trailer. I wouldn't hesitate to move it for a short distance.The boat is sitting on trailer.
I am reluctant to sell this boat. If I do not sell it shortly ,I will buy a better trailer,maybe a new trailer.

Have you considered U-Ship - have one of those guys just throw your trailer up on a flat bed and deliver it that way?

There are a number of options. You should post a photo of the trailer/boat at the least for some ideas.

You could drive your boat to a travel lift in the area pretty easily. If not a travel lift, one of the big daddy fork lifts or devices that places use to load boats far bigger into dry slips etc.

You owned a F235 and HAD the trailer with you. What changed your mind on this process? Photos would help.

The boat is in Georgia.I bought a trailer in Delaware, modified it, drove it 900 miles to Georgia. I just was not comfortable with the fit once we finally loaded the boat.

Good Luck Wesley !!!!!
Just sold my F235 to Wesley in Florida. All you have to do now is get that boat to St. Pete.
I`m on the hunt for another one, closer to home.

I just bought a dual axle trailer. No desire to drive back to Georgia. All I need now is a F235 , closer to home.
Once again , good luck Wesley in Florida.
