2006 Key West 268

Kept covered and very well taken care of. In 2015 I had a 10k trailer built for it by Peterson Trailers in Gibsonton. I spent over $800 in new brakes, rotors and calipers. I installed four new Goodyear Endurance 215/75R15 tires for $700, installed a new Demco surge controller for $500. It has a ladder and a full size spare with a hub.

The boat is 26ft-8in overall. From the tongue of the trailer to the end of the motors is 32ft. It has a nice spacious 9ft-8in beam. The boat with the new Tohatsus weighs in around 8,000 lbs. Hull weight of the bare hull is 4550 lbs.

It came stock with a SeaLand flushable head with a 20 gallon holding tank and overboard macerator. This unit was completely rebuilt in May with a new pump, seals and pressure relief valve for over $600. The system works perfectly and will be one of the reasons your lady will enjoy a day on the boat! Other features are a pair of tackle storage boxes, 20 gallon rear livewell, 15 gallon fresh water tank, 23 rod holders including another four in the head that can be locked. Overhead console with VHF radio, three spreader lights and switches. Clarion radio and four working speakers. 202 qt rear seat/fish box. The front fish box is used for below deck storage and the macerator pump has been disconnected. It has forward seating and the cushions were never used as long as I have owned the boat. All of the coaming pads have been replaced at various times over the years. Most including the helm seat are in very good shape.

I repowered the boat in March of 2021, I replaced the orginal Honda BF150s with almost 900 hours on them, installing a pair of Tohatsu/Honda BFT225's, which was the optional power for the boat back when built. These motors come with a full five year warranty that can be transferred to the new owner. At the time of the repower I had a Simrad AP44 autopilot installed. They also installed four new transom thru hulls from Gem. The fuel tank was then drained and flushed.

I have continued to improve and update this rig. My first project was to install a Lewmar ProFish windlass. It has a 22lb stainless claw anchor and 300' new 1/2" rode with 15' galvanized chain. In January 2021 I installed a new 96" Rhodan along with an upgraded Shuttleslide. the three Duracell AGM's are group 31's using a new Yandina Trollbridge combiner to charge them when on house power or from one of the Tohatsus when under way. It works flawlessly and after a day of fishing I use about 20-25% of battery power.

The ttop fabric and lacing was replaced in 2021. I replaced the original 2 bank charger and installed a Guest 3 bank that takes care of the motor batteries and two house batteries. I have installed a pair of LifePo 100 amp batteries that are charged via the motors or when on shore power. At that time I installed a pair of Marinco electric reel outlets. I also replaced the Lenco control box ($400) and put in a new control switch. I have also replaced the Lewmar control switch. I replaced the Furuno 585 with a Garmin 943XSV and a Garmin GT51 transducer. I also installed some led lights on the ttop that does a good job for night fishing. There are three spreader lights if needed. There is one underwater light. I have installed new baitwell/washdown pump. I just had a new Laporte cover made for the boat, it was $1800.

It has a Garmin 8212 that I installed in late 2017. I just installed a new Garmin 943XSV with a Garmin GT51 transducer for $1300. It replaced a Furuno 585 I was using as a bottomfinder.
