Checkmate Entertainer????

[deejaycee_2000]

Checked out a couple of boat classifieds and came across a Checkmate entertainer the only thing the add says is ... V8 inboard engine, Immaculate. As new, and going for $9000, phone the guy and he said it has had all it services, it is in perfect condition, only used in fresh water, etc. apparently an 86 model, and imported from USA .... so gonna go have a look at it after work today, what do you guys think, good deal or bad, I have no clue what it looks like, anyone have one like this? Info on this boat ..........

Saw one of the new Pulsare 2100 bowriders at the Milwaukee boat show a couple of weeks ago. Sleek looking boat.

i think the checkmate came after the glastron, as a copy cat.

Re: Checkmate Entertainer????

went to go look at the boat yesterday after work, and the word imaculate is way under rated for what it looks like, it belongs to a marine mech who treated this boat as his baby, it looks like this boat was manufatured this year, it is in showroom condition, and everything is just perfect, it doesn't even look like anyone has ever sat in the seats, the dials and everything ...... all is original on this boat, she really is beautifull, I wish I took a couple of pics to show you guys .... i'm in love with this boat ..... the trailer still have the original kansas number plate from USA on .... original OMC V8 volvo penta Z-drive that purrrs like a kitten, you can really see that this boat slept under a blanket every night ...... for a 1986 model this thing is still a babe magnet and a half ..... for $9000 it is definately a steal .... just a pitty I don't have that spare cash right now otherwise I would have gone to fetch her today ...... I better play the lotto this weekend .........
