Polaris Contender 16'6" with Coast Guard approved rescue grade Hypalon and 70HP Yamaha

description

This is a pristine boat. Looks like a newer mid 2000 model! Polaris still makes the Contender as-is. A new boat is over three times the price.

This boat looks newer than some of the 2006's that we've seen from Florida that get very high use. It's always been kept covered or indoor and it shows! The Hypalon tubes look almost new (one would think it was re-tubed) and the hull is also in great condition. The factory arch has factory installed docking lights that look great. The motor looks new. This boat is from the Pacific Northwest/Canada and the previous owner says it has less than 200 hours on it. Polaris Boats is a renowned RIB manufacturer in Canada that sells commercial boats to the Canadian Coast Guard and to other governmental/police agencies. This is our first Polaris RIB inflatable and we are impressed. It's a well made boat and the brand should get more attention.

Unlike most of our boats, this is not a US registered boat but we will work with the manufacturer and buyer to go through that process. It's
best for US purchaser to come and see the boat and import it as a personal import into the US. We can also arrange for a customs broker
and shipper.

When you compare this boat, compare it to a good 2002-2005 RIB because that's the shape that it's in.

Additional equipment includes: dual battery with dual Perco battery selector, GPS Chartplotter with local charts, Lowrance depth sounder.

The boat is located in North Vancouver, Canada. With the season heating up, we don't expect this mid size RIB to last very long. This boat is sub 1000 lbs and can be towed by any car! Trailer (an ezloader) is extra for $500. If you prefer, we'll provide a brand new 2009 Roadrunner galvanized trailer at wholesale price. With a 2009 trailer, you'll have a total package that looks new!
