Watching the show Flipper as a kid I've always wanted this boat. I found it several years ago right here in Southern Oregon.This is a 1966 Thunderbird Iroquois, and likely if you are looking at this you already know as much or more than I do about them.This boat was repowered with a freshwater cooled Mercruiser 470 in 1989. It has 143 hours on the meter since that time. The first year of ownership I started to sort through the 50 years of terrible wiring, I replaced the starter and ran out of summer to get it to the lake. Last year I had big plans... but they never happened. At the end of last summer I changed the fluids, serviced the outdrive and put in a new impeller and took it to the lake for the first time. This year I wanted to redo the upholstery and get it in the water more.I just don't see this happening anytime soon, so it's time to pass it on to another Flipper enthusiast.It comes with a very nice EZ-Loader galvanized trailer that was also new in 1989.The boat runs out great, has about 25 gallons of gas in the tanks, it will need new trailer tires to haul it any distance.If you want to come look at it and hear it run or take it out to the lake, we can do that too.This boat has never had bottom paint or left in the water, the gelcoat is in nice shape and could be shiny again. I was told it was formerly a patrol boat here in Oregon.These boats don't come around often.... I know.. I looked and looked, and will probably regret getting rid of it.Gary 541-892-240 Eight
