    For Sale: Toysport Triton - Self Righting

    I bought this boat a few months ago on this site. A while later, I bought a brand new triton hull and have just completed building it. Now that it is in the water I can hardly justify having two Tritons, so this one is going on the market. The exterior of the boat is in good shape. Not perfect, but really the best colored finish I have ever seen. The reason is, it looks like the builder did not paint the boat, he actually added the color to the glass when he made it. Someone can correct me on this, because I am not sure, but really it is something to see. He did a "run" of this scheme because I have seen a few others around.

    What you see is what you get. A few scuffs on the bottom, but no damage. The turn fin has some scuffs on it and one of the trim tabs is not perfectly flat. I ran it just the way I am shipping it and it absolutely worked great. The only thing I did was add some weight velcro'd on to the side to ensure it flipped well. I also added the carbon fiber servo mount as well as taking all the hardware off the back and cleaning it up and resealing it.

    I cleaned up the inside as well as I could, but it is a bit dirty looking. Previous owner said he had an ESC poof on him at one time.

    All in all a great looking boat in the water.

      Oh, yes it came with the sticker on it, the wife was not to amused, but I thought it was pretty funny. I am pretty sure with some heat it will just come off.

              Skellyo, just replied to your PM. Are you still good to go without the stand?

                Sold. Payment received. Give me a day to get it shipped to you. I am going to stop by the store tomorrow and get a LOT of packing material to ensure this thing gets to you good shape. I will be shipping it insured for good measure. I will also probably remove the rudder and turn fin and put them in a ziplock bag in the hull.

                      Hey that is my old boat, I blew up 4 esc in that thing and had it back flipping over 10' in the air on many occasion. TOUGH as nails hull better than a DF29 not as good as a SD3 but the self righting is a great thing. Have fun. Good to see the big nuts decal and the eat my roost have lasted all these years

                            Chuckle. It is a funny sticker. I have another Triton I just built, but it is plain white with a bunch of stickers. It looks good, but I really liked the colors on that boat I sold you. I am going to miss it. Glad it got to you ok, and I hope you have a lot of fun with it!
