AVON RIB 8' Inflatable Boat: $1200 (San Diego, CA)

I'm selling an 8' AVON RIB inflatable. It's the one with the fiberglass hull bottom, not the individual panels.

$1200, located in Ocean Beach, San Diego, CA

My step-father bought this as a tender for his Hatteras, but due to recent medical developments, is not able to use it.

I believe he's the second owner. The previous owner had it for decades, and was meticulous about care and documentation. It was always put in the water with the sling at the SDYC, so the trailer has never seen salt water (but it does have waterproof lights and bearing buddies).

It has an 8 hp Tohatsu engine that runs beautifully. It has electric start, but when I started it up prior to selling, I used the recoil starter just to see how hard it would be: It started literally on the third pull, after not being used for six months. Idles smoothly, and revs clean.

It comes complete and ready to go in the water today: gas can, spare gas can (you can't trust those mechanical gauges too much!) 2-stroke oil mix beaker, current registration, factory bench seats, plus an extra bench with a backrest. Oars and ropes for davit slings are also included.

If you need a light, portable boat for your expedition or whatever, this is a really good option.

PM if you want to see it.
