Hi group,
I plan to submit an ad for the magazine this evening, but wanted to let anyone local to Buffalo know of a boat that I am getting ready to part with.
I'm specifically addressing this to locals because I know so little about the boat that I wouldn't want anyone driving a long way if I unintentially mis-represent the boat.
Ahead of ad, I can say that it's a recent purchase of mine but unfortunately I did not know the clutch dog was bad when bought. Origional owner mysteriously included new gear parts in sale to me, which I will pass on to you. I can't do this work myself and as a result of this and financial circumstances, I am looking to get the boat, even at a considerable $ loss, into more capable hands - with boats like these, I think that's important. Hopefully, a better time for me to get back into a Thompson will come in my future.
Origional 60 HP engine runs well wih recent tune up receipt. Varnish is peeling, front deck ply is delaminating. I don't know what to consider average, but considering age, I think condition is pretty good. Trailer is great with new tongue, wheels, tires, and bearings.
To see boat, or ask more questions, e-mail me at szeglowski@hotmail.com or 716-573-5607
buffalo ny 1961 17foot boat available
