Supercat 17 Grand Bend area

Looks like a pretty good deal. Trailer is extra $100. My concern would be the inspection port in the transom?

My concern would be the inspection port in the transom?

I have seen the transom ripped off an arc21

I hear it's not that uncommon for this boat

Those inspection ports indicate that a repair had to be made to the gudgeon bolt attachment plates.

Must be a regular thing with these boats. Here is one for sale on Long island.

Inspection port factory. I have a manual that shows it but have not figured out how to post pics

$550 can = $413 us. I’m calling this too good to be true based on sheen of hulls.

but have not figured out how to post pics

in a new window go to: Photo Albums (tab on top of screen)
select: Member Personal Albums

Create an album (the "add an album" button is under the home button)
add photos
view photos
right click on photos and "copy image address"

back in other window/ thread:

click the URL button below and paste in the url of the photo
preview

rinse and repeat for each photo

OR
host your photos elsewhere and just do the last step

Those are factory installed, don't ask me why they put them there, but the SuperCats all come with them. I just found out that the brains behind SC passed away last April

Ah, makes sense, that's more curve than most hulls. They were designed that way because the brains behind SC watched H16's pitchpole, & decided anything flat was just going to drag you over once it went underwater.
l should have said 17's, thats the manual I was looking at.
Jesuz, if I had to haul a load like that photo, I think I'd find a new hobby 😆
As soon as I get Damons email addy, I'm sending him the SC Owners & Parts Manuals. I understand its tricky to post PDF files properly.

haha - you are pretty spoiled with your personal marina . 🙂

I did not buy it but it now link says not available so like I said, true good to be true

Definitely NOT do all 17s have the ports there
