1999 Mariah Z258 Cuddy

Dropping the price on this as a pre-summer deal! $11000 takes it for any member of this great forum!

Hey all,
Getting the last touches on my boat so she's ready to go to a new owner. I picked up a z302 and can't pilot 2 boats at once!
First off, it's located just outside of Madison, WI.
The 1999 has the 5.7L EFI Mercruiser with a Gen2 Alpha 1 drive. Currently it spins a 4 blade prop that gives amazing launch and a 42 MPH top speed. The prop has a couple dings but nothing horrible and I can get a new one for about $82.
The interior in the cabin was re-done in all black Vinyl and the cabin bolsters were replaced with custom made Maple ones. The sundeck and rear seat fabrics were replaced, the only spots left are the two captains chairs and they are glued so they don't spread. If it doesn't sell this fall, or if the new owner lives local, I will replace that vinyl this winter too. Both are torn on the seat bottom near the front edge. The boat does come with a bimini top that has only been used once (it's green).

The engine has around 340 hours on it and has been serviced regularly, the bellows were replaced last summer along with the trim sensors and the sacrificial anodes. Installed a new sending unit for the depth sounder along with a new pump for the rear shower. Boat has shore power hook-up that is wired to the built in battery charger to maintain the batteries when not in use.

The trailer has new bunks and carpeting installed this year along with a new non-marking roller bow stop. Surge brakes on it work well and I've never had an issue with them. The bearings were all replaced last summer.

The bad -
The rear power light doesn't move all the way up/down on it's own without a little assistance. A new non-power light is available online but I've been content with it the way it is.

I loved this boat and hate to part with it but it's awful hard to justify owning two! It comes with a large anchor that stows in the bow and I can throw in some orange life preservers and a throw-able cushion if requested. It does need a good cleaning but it's up to the new owner if they want me to do that first or if they want to save a few bucks and do it themselves. I buffed and polished it in the spring so it just has a few months of weather and use hiding some of the shine.

All of that said, it's an amazing boat and will bring your family as much fun as ours. Any questions feel free to ask! PM or Email me for a phone number. I won't ship it but I will help get it to you if you aren't too far away.

Thanks,
Nick
