Luhrs tuna boat. DO NOT MISS THIS ONE FOR THE SUMMER Vehicle Description Vehicle Description No time to enjoy this boat. My loss your gain Many of you may be looking for a boat and are confused on what to buy, where to put it, and what your cost will be to have a boat in Boston Harbor. YOUR DREAM IS ABOUT TO COME TRUE. THIS OFFER IS YOUR CHANCE TO ACHIEVE ALL YOUR BOATING DREAMS ALL AT ONCE. THIS IS A VERY RARE OPPORTUNITY FOR ANY FISHERMAN AND THEIR FAMILY AND IT WILL ONLY COME ALONG THIS ONE TIME. Now is your chance to buy a tuna boat fully equipped ready to go with a slip for the 2009 summer season. Enjoy the beautiful Boston Harbor fishing experience during the day and relax and enjoy the beautiful Boston skyline at night as you relax on the deck of your boat. IT'S TIME FOR YOU TO GO FISHING You are bidding on a 1988 Lurhs Alura down-east style hard top cruiser that is a tuna boat. You will receive not only the boat but, all the gear, the fishing poles and equipment, the big game poles, all the safety equipment including a state of the art survival raft by Givens, all the major overhauled drive system parts and components, a state of the art navigation system and a slip in Boston Harbor that is fully paid for (summer season of 2009). I have inquired about the slip transfer to a different user and have been told that this would not be an issue. The boat is docked at Boston Harbor and ready to go out to the well known Stellwagon Banks, Cape Cod, the well know Gloucester fishing banks or wherever you choose to go. As featured in the pictures, the boat has a semi-displacement hull and is 35' 5â?? long and has a 12' 2" beam with a draft of 2' 11". The boat weighs 12,800 lbs. and is powered with gas. This boat has been fully re-powered in 2004 with rebuilt pleasure craft engines that are 350 cubic inch. Each engine has 270 HP. for a combined 540 HP. The rebuilt engines have very limited hours on them because the boat was purchased in October of 2004 and used for about 15 hrs that year. In 2005, I was busy with my business and again it had very limited use. The transmissions have been fully rebuilt in 2006 by a marine transmission re-builder in Florida known as Transmarine. I have also installed new damper plates, transmission coolers and new transmission lines, and new transmission alarms that are located next to the captain. The boat also has two Carter 4 bbl carburetors.. I have installed new blower lines and new toilet lines in 2005. Both 1-¼â?? diam. shafts and cutlass bearings where replaced new in 2006. A new set of props where installed in 2006 which are top of the line 4 blade and the props were matched to this boat specifically using 4 different computer programs including prop scan. The props are bronze and had a cost of $1,700.00 alone. A new fresh water pump has also been installed along with two new bilge pumps in 2006. The boat has a new halon fire suppression system that was installed in 2005 and is fully charged at this time. All new canvases have been installed at the beginning of last year and there is an extra set of canvases that have been reconditioned and repaired with all new plastic for winter storage. THE PORT MOTOR IS OVERHEATING AS OF LAST SEASON 2008. WE ARE GOING TO CHANGE THE IMPELLOR AND ALL HOSES AND WATER PUMP AND THIS SHOULD SOLVE THE ISSUE.

The rods are PENN 130 International with bent butt custom made rods that are made to stay in the swivel pole holders on board.

There is a total of 4 rods and they are in excellent condition and have been serviced by PENN when needed.

I use two of the live wells for storage of ropes etc. There is also a gaff, net and miscellaneous ropes and lines included. Chum Buckets - There are three plastic chum buckets on board also Windless - The vessel has a Seawolf electric windless with 20' of galvanized chain and 150â?? of 3/4 " rope that stores in the stern compartment. Chum Grinder- 12 volt purchased 2006 The Galley, Berth and Head As you may already know, the Luhrs Alura is a boat that has the best of all worlds when it comes to fishing, relaxing, sleeping, family accommodations and stability. This boat is a boat that one minute your down below in a galley that has a stove, cabinets, head, a berth under the captains deck and sleeping quarters at the stern and the next minute your on the deck fighting a fish or just relaxing in the sun on the rather large deck area. Most boats give you a large galley and berth and a small deck or a large deck and a small galley and sleeping area. This boat gives you all that you could want and more. The boat is designed so everything is accessible to you when you want it...cook while they fish or relax while they cook or everyone fishes and then everyone relaxesâ?¦whatever you want. The boat is simply a great design for all uses including big game fish, cod, haddock, strippers and so on. In the bay or 45 miles outâ?¦I have been 45 miles out on a flat day and also 25 miles out with seas at 8 to 10 feet. The boat has always performed for me and my passengers. The boat is designed for the ocean whether its relaxation or fishing at it's best of the coast of Boston, the Cape, the islands or Gloucester, MA The Boat Slip The boat slip is fully paid for the 2009 season at a cost of approx. $3,500.00. The slip is transferable to you. Winter storage is available at the marina. The boat is located at Boston Harbor Shipyard and Marina. This marina is located in East Boston (across from the Boston Marriot and the Italian section of Boston). There are water taxis that will bring you from your boat at the slip to the Boston waterfront for dining and sightseeing and also return you back to the Marina when you are done. The marina has a full laundromat and bathrooms with showers available to you. Your boat is always accessible 24 hours a day and also is watched by an on staff security company. Any complicated boat repair may be made on site using Boston Boat Works. This Marina is NOT A SNOB marina where martinis and Baked Alaska are served. This is a working marina for you to enjoy and use at your leisure with your friends and family. At some marinas, the boaters look at you funny as you pull in with fish on board, and even if you decide to use your boat for a cruise. This marina is very friendly and accommodating. SUMMERYI have a conservative investment of $35,000.00 plus my time into this vessel, not including the original purchase price. This was done to make an investment and also a very safe boat. The boat is fully re-powered with all items working except the hot water tank that is not working (I never use it). I do believe the handrails need some caulking which I will do if I have the chance. I have always considered safety number one on the water, and that is why the boat has a $5,000.00 life raft with other safety items. The engine compartment is very clean and free of leaks from the engine and transmission. It is not often that you will find a re-powered boat in this condition that is ready to go and enjoy for reasonable money with a slip at a great marina. I have about 40 pictures that are available to you through email. I will meet only serious bidders in Boston for a viewing. A sea trial will require a fully refundable $5,000.00 deposit. All bidders should check for financing before bidding. I have set a reserve on the boat that is very modest compared to the actual worth of the boat, the equipment, the re-power, the season paid in full and all the labor that has been put into this vessel. Please bid responsibly and please no tire kickers or dreamers on this one! On May-23-09 at 22:41:07 PDT, seller added the following information: SquareTrade © AP6.0
