[SOLD] AB 9VL RIB/Yamaha Engine/Trailer/Accessories

[Pirate007]

AB Ventus 9VL Rigid Fiberglass Inflatable Dinghy – Hypalon
Dinghy was purchased new in 2010 and used approx 4 winter months per year by an EU sailor residing part time in Sarasota who upon leavng each year then stored the dinghy in his garage for 8 months. I purchased the dinghy in 3/2016 and have kept in my garage other than occasionally hanging on my sailboat davits while sailing in Tampa Bay. Essentially this dinghy has not had much UV exposure and almost no summer time UV.

Condition is good, no leaks, 2 Stbd sacrificial patches for the dinghy arm locations, 2 Stbd patches for scratched areas but not punctured. Deck non-skid has been replaced, hull in good condition. With some routine maintenance this should last another 10 years. Nice dry ride, holds in place nicely bow to dock under slight power for boarding if you can’t side board.

I will accept offers individually for the Dinghy, the engine, and the trailer however I am not going to piece meal out the accessories so include them in your offer for the any of the 3 components. I will not release the trailer prior to the dinghy being sold in the event the dinghy needs be delivered locally to a new owner.
