God
I've officially put my 16 McKee up for sale. I've completely gone thru the boat in the past two years. Not much on the boat I haven't had my hands on. In the past two years:
New wheels/hubs/lights/bearings/springs/rear cross member/ bunks and brackets(new winch coming this week)
Boat has new steering(uflex no feed back), control cables, water pump, thermostats, fuel pump, power pack,gear lube, spark plugs, fuel line, fuel filter, battery cable. battery switch, battery. I went thru the carbs. Compression is all with in 5 lbs of each other. Just did a decarb on it. All new wiring expect for the engine harness.new guages, new key switch, new switch panel, new fuse block. New fuel tank, primer bulb, fuel line. New center console. Leaning post is used but has a new cushion on it. leaning post is wired for 12V. I filled in the forward area between the side storage compartments with epe' decking to make a casting platform(looks pretty good). I put a Lowrance x4 depthfinder/gps on it. I took it out last week and it ran 42 mph wide open with me in it. The boat is not the prettiest thing, but its solid. It was originally a duel console that the person before me converted into a center. The inside could use a paint job, the outside is better and just need washing. The engine runs like a sewing machine. Transom and floor are solid.


$3500 as is. I plan to install a new bow light and replace the winch as soon as I have time. Boat is located in Goose Creek, SC(near Charleston). Taxes are paid up and registration is current. I'll add pictures after I give it a bath. IF anyone is interested, pm, email or call. qualitymarineservice@yahoo.com (843) 532-9148
 
Hey Charlie, if your interested,I'll make you a package deal. I'll throw in my 1999 1500 Suburban with the boat for $7000. Sorry though, the Suburban isn't green
 
I thought by now we would have settled and gotten my retro check. looks like we're gonna get into the summer and strike to get what we want. don't know when we'll settle or what i'm looking at in back pay but I figure by then you'll have your boat sold. anyway I figure the best time to shop will be after the season when prices drop a bit.
 
Great looking rig there Spare! I'm looking for almost the same set up only with a 19' Carolina Skiff. Wish yours was a 18 ft Offshoreman, I'd bring ya some foldin' money.
 
Bring this back from the dead, found another boat I want and need to sell one before I buy another. Boat has been in use since the last time I listed it. Boat is kinda ugly, but is solid and dependable. $3000 OBO, located in Sneads Ferry NC
 
Wish id bought this, my 19 carolina skiff looks great after going through a complete rebuild, but rides so damn rough it hurts my feelings.

That's why I traded mine for my Sundance B20. I need a flat bottom to float shallow where I like to go, but needed something with some V in the bow to cut some of the chop instead of just pounding.
 
bumping this back up, got the boat back down here in Charleston, put a new axle and springs under it. I've got to replace the winch stand and bolt some new fenders on it. Its ready to run
 
quick question we have a 14 foot McKee that has been given to me if i want it its in ruff shape can the liner be separated from the hull like a v20. wish yours was a side console also looking at a 74 16 or 18 in ladson sc
 
no you cant separate it, I had a 14 before this one. This boat was originally a side console that was converted. After having this boat set up as a center, Id never want it as a sit down side console
