    Yellow Rio Gas Boats

    I have a line on 2 New yellow Rio Gas Boats. If I get them, they would be $340 each plus shipping. Shipping a boat this size isnt cheap, probably at least $50.00 These boats retailed new for $600.00

    The boat can be seen here.


    If anyone is interested I can get them.

    Someone is going to tell you that you have to post pictures.

            I know you guys were taking a poke. I knew it would happen. I like the idea that we police ourselves.

              FWIW, the Rio51 has been discontinued by Hobbico. No idea why. I would take a pass Steven, these boats were not one of the better Aquacraft products and I would not think that you would be doing yourself any favors by selling them.

                It's a pretty good group you have here.

                  I worked a deal for three of them. I will be selling them for $300 each plus shipping. The Hull and hardware alone is worth that.

                    Bill I wouldn't be so sure of that. Seems that its a good boat after all.

                        They are complete. The boxes are dinged up, but the boats are perfect.
                        For the price I couldnt help to keep one for myself.

                          Wow... that is a good deal... Even if you had to upgrade hardware, etc...

                            The hardware looks great. Its very similar looking to lots of the higher end stuff out there. I just opened one up. The letters are in sticker. So this will be the next OffshoreElectrics Logo boat. Neu 2230 here I come. That is if everything goes right.
