MJBaldwin Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Ive been looking for a nice used boat for this whole summer pretty much and just cant get my hands on what im looking for I think I might have found one now thats about right in my price range which is very low at 2000 and under. Its a 1988 Alumacraft Trophy with a 1988 88HP Johnson motor. Wondering if anyone has comments or anything about this set up can try to post a picture and hope I can hear some feed back soon. Thanks all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Get'n Jiggy Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Looks like it's in good shape, make sure the floor is firm. I thinkthose Johnson 88's were a kind of commercial version, just a basicno frills engine. It'll probably be fond of gas but I think they werea good motor. Nothing wrong with Alumacraft either.

Esox_Magnum Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Good price, I sold my 83 Trophy with a 93 70hp on it last year for $3600 and it wasn't in bad shape but did need some TLC... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonicrunch Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 that is a good price. that johnson motor is a great motor. as long as you have even compression amongst the cylinders, you are good to go. everything else is easy to fix.
