                          I am selling my 1988 Fish Nautique. I
                          am asking 42k, but I will accept any
                          reasonable offer. I am selling because we
                          purchased a bigger boat, and the Fish did
                          not get used this year. I used her the
                          summer of 2017, and 2018. She sat through
                          2019, though I did start and run her
                          twice a month. We used her in fresh, and
                          salt water. I would say she has a 30 mile
                          safe offshore range, though she has been
                          60 miles into the gulf. I usually just
                          fished her within Texas state waters (9
                          miles) offshore.
                          I started working for the Nautique
                          warehouse in Northeast Texas in 1992. I
                          know am part owner in the Nautqiue
                          dealership in Tyler, TX.  I have
                          always wanted a Fish Nautique, and
                          finally acquired this one in the fall of
                          2016.     Through the
                          fall, winter, and into late spring, I
                          refurbished this boat. There are way to
                          many items to list that were replaced,
                          but I will attempt to include
                          everything.

                          The list goes on. I have over 70k
                          invested in her. I have photo
                          documentation of the refurbish. There are
                          a few simple things I have not addressed
                          yet.  I have not installed new
                          latches on the lids, which you will see
                          in the photos.  I wanted to rebuild
                          the dry box above the helm too. 
                          Finally, I wanted to, but never replaced
                          the plastic access hatches.  The
                          Gelcoat is original too, so keep in mind
                          there are some chips, cracks, and
                          crazing.  
                          I also have some things that will go
                          with her.
                          spare prop
                          original driver, and passenger
                          seats (I never installed them because I
                          wanted to install a leaning post)
                          original interior cushions (from
                          1988, though still in decent shape) 
                          (we never used the cushions, they stayed
                          in storage)
                          kicker motor bracket
                          We encourage any potential buyers to
                          come view her in person, and take her on
                          a test ride!
