Anderson here, The Nitro that I have been using for tournaments, recreation, and guiding all these years is ready to go to a new home! The boat has been winterized and is ready for the water as is. I wasn't able to wash the boat for the pictures so I am sorry about the scum line(it looks beautiful when it is all cleaned up).....the temperatures were below freezing. The boat is a 2001 Nitro 700LX, single Console fiberglass bass boat. The outboard is a 60hp Tracker Marine/Mercury motor. The length is 17 ft and it comes with a 2000 Trailstar Trailer. I am the original owner of the boat and it is in good shape for it age. It does have some scratches however none that are very deep or easily noticed. If you are seriously considering this boat I will meet you somewhere in Tunkhannock to check it out before you buy it, I will also bring you out on it when the ice is off if you need to learn what the boat can do, what to watch out for, how all the gadgets work, how to run the boat, ect..... The outboard motor runs good, I can't say great, it has it's fits when the motor isn't warmed up but she has never let me down. The only thing that does not work on the boat is the trim gauge does not work(just needs a new sensor on the motor). I never fixed it because I never even looked at it. It is a simple fix however. The skeg was also knocked off this past season, I just put a skeg guard on it, which also got a little banged up, however it does not affect the performance of the motor. You can see it in the pictures. I made alot of changes 2 years ago (when I refreshed the boat) : 1)A passenger rod organizer was added. 2) A flipping deck instert with an extra seat pedastal base was also added. It also makes more storage space to keep the clutter off the walking surfaces. 3)Recessed Trolling motor pedal tray 4)New Steering Wheel 5)New Seats(the new seats are splitting at a couple seems, see the photos) 6)All new carpet 7)Re-plumbed the Livewell system to suit tournament angling better(I added a pump out system, a recirculating pump and timer switch, replaced the old fill/recirculate pump, moved the components to an easy to reach location, the new pumps are Rule 800gph Tournament Series pumps) 8)Added a mount for the onboard charger 9) Put a brand new 3 bank Hummingbird on board charger in the boat(plug it in and forget it) 10)Put a brand new Fortrex 101 bow mount trolling motor on the boat 11)Put the best 6 gauge marine wire in the boat for the Trolling motor, along with a 60 amp Minn Kota Breaker 12)New Minn Kota Trolling Motor Plug and receptacle(the best available in my opinion) 13)New trailer hubs, seals, and bearings 14)Over the years I have also changed most of the running lights on the trailer with LEDS including the rear taillights, which is nice since they truly are a submersible light, so you don't have to unplug them when launching the boat. 15) LED Lighting in 2 of the front compartments and in the livewell. There is also a Snake Light in the Front Center compartment. 16)A mini in between seat instert for 3 across seating while underway with the outboard 17)A new Trailer Jack 18)A new trailer winch and strap The boat will also come with 2 fish finders one on the bow and one at the helm(the one with GPS can be used for ice fishing with the ice fishing caddy that will come with the boat purchase also), a spare tire for the trailer, 1 throw cushion, 1 fire extinguisher, 1 oar, keel gaurd, custom cover, 2 Stainless Steel props in fair condition(1 for heavy loads and 1 for light loads) and 4 Sealed AGM Batteries(top of the line batteries). All you need is the keys and some life jackets and you are ready for the water! 570-417-5841 Asking $7000               Mike won the 2013 Big Bass Contest with this Smallmouth pulled from the Susquehanna River! Nice going Mike! He has won a free 8hr trip for 2 in 2014!  Hey everyone Josh here. Went fishing for the last time for the year. My father, wife and myself for about 7 hours on the river today. We did pretty well with 63 smallies and one walleye. Jigs and jerkbaits with the water in the low forties not to bad! We would like to take this time and tell everyone the boats are put away and we are all done for the year. We would also like to thank our customers this year, it was a pleasure and a lot of fun and fish catchin action! Last but not least our winner Mike Chaney for our lunker contest good job Mike and we hope to.see.everyone back next year!  If anyone is looking for a great bass club to join, the Lunker Landers Bass Club is looking for new members! Fishing with the Lunker Landers was the first Bass Club I ever joined, I learned a lot fishing with those guys and I also had a great time fishing some of the best lakes around. Their tournament schedule focuses on only the best fisheries in the North East.

Hey guys josh here. Hit the river for a 4hr bass trip on earlier today (nov. 3rd) with tim. Kinda tough today for us. Not alot of fish caught only 8 some decent fish in the boat and a handful come off as well. Jigs and jerkbaits are working well. Not a bad day gettin out was nice. Till next time! I may try crappie tomorrow at lake carey, will report if I go out! 
Josh hit up the river this morning with his wife and our father. They caught around 40 smallies not including the dinks and managed figure out the bigger fish! Book before it gets too cold! The great fishing wont last much longer!
Josh again, hit the river with Nick and smoked'em again... 6 1/2 hrs of fishing and we managed 103 in the boat plus a dozen or two dinks that we didnt count. Water temp is 48 and dropping. What a awesome day! I got a bunch of video of Nick reeling in a bunch of fish with his video camera we had a blast with those strong pullin smallies!
Anderson here. I had a few unexpected free hours this morning to go and enjoy some of the river fishing. Probably put around 40 nice fish into the boat. Biggest went 3lbs and I also managed a 19" Walleye that ended up as dinner! The river is on right now and the big girls are starting to show up. I saw a few bruisers today when I was packing up, in areas that I wouldn't have thought to look. Hopefully they will be there for Josh's next trip in a couple days. |
