Armstrong monohull shorty..
On bellingham Craigslist as well as Armstrongs website.
A bit small for us..
http://bellingham.craigslist.org/boa/2844512456.html
Probably towable with our Toyota as it most likely weighs under 7,000lbs

Re: Armstrong monohull shorty..
Another quality boat! However, the 31' Coastal Craft still trumps all recent offerings in my book.

Re: Armstrong monohull shorty..
Absolutely agree, 7' feet is A lOT more boat for a little more money...I haven't heard from Coastal Craft to see if a purchase agreement was signed, otherwise I will plan a trip next week.

That Armstrong is really optioned out, nice boat. Big engine box in the cockpit would take some getting used to . . .

Re: Armstrong monohull shorty..
It is about 6 feet short...
But the reality is, it is towable with our current vehicle. No dry stack, no moorage, no bottom paint, and a lot easier to maintain.
I dont want to out grow it in a year or three though.

Re: Armstrong monohull shorty..
Just because a purchase agreement has been signed doesn't mean the boat is sold. It only means that a potential buyer has paid a refundable deposit and offered to pay X amount for the boat if it surveys spotless (including engines if the buyer is smart and pays to have that done) and if the buyer likes how the boat operates during a sea trial. If you like it don't be afraid to put in a back-up offer. If the original buyer bails out then you get the same terms (opportunities to back out or renegotiate the price). All this applies to brokerage boats, private sales get handled however the buyer & seller agree to handle it.Chtucker wrote:Absolutely agree, 7' feet is A lOT more boat for a little more money...I haven't heard from Coastal Craft to see if a purchase agreement was signed, otherwise I will plan a trip next week.

Nice looking boat.
For my personal use (fishing) and tastes (clean deck space), I think I'd get pretty frustrated with that boat.

Re: Armstrong monohull shorty..
I don't see how you could fish on that boat.. Plus they pet little railing on the engine house, can't even use it as a seat

Re: Armstrong monohull shorty..
I would get pretty frustrated as well with that dog house taking up alot of deck space. I don't know about the salesman's tactics with the empty liquor bottle and a jar of Vaseline in that one picture
Still a very nice boat and thanks for posting up the extra pic's.

Wooaaa... missed that one....
I like the idea of the boat, the dog house and the lack of true head are deal breakers. If it was just me and the boys a portapotty would be fine.. Not with with wife and the kids...

You have to use the Vaseline to get around the engine box.

The doghouse would be the deal breaker for me. I like to relax out on my "back porch". Outboard only for me!
