For Sale - 1989 Starcraft Islander 221v

1989 22’ Starcraft Islander – This boat needs nothing! You could be fishing by the end of the day! I purchased this boat 3 ½ years ago to go salmon fishing, then I had a baby and I just don’t use it enough. Now I just buy salmon off the ice at Meijer. This is a serious fishing machine and I don’t feel like I am making good use of it, so it’s time for someone else to enjoy it. This has the gas sipper 3.0l 4-cylinder motor, you can fish all day for very little gas. This is a lightweight boat for its size, the previous owner used to tow it with a Jeep Grand Cherokee. It comes with a Load-Rite roll-on trailer. I am selling it with all the fishing gear and I don’t want to separate it. This would be a great package for someone looking to get out on the lake. I have invested over $10,000 in this boat and I am asking $7800. Located in Middleville, MI

Texts preferred during business hours, calls any other time. 616-430-0789

 

I can send higher resolution photos if need be.

 

Good:

The previous owner went through the boat and put all new floors in it.

Newer Lowrance Elite-5 DSI with Downscan Imaging and GPS plus lake charts

Brand new tires with zero miles (got it out of storage and one was flat, one was a spare so I went and bought 4 new ones.) Transferable warranty included on tires.

Spare tire with less than 200 miles

2 Spare props – Dinged up here and there and the old style hub to use them

Canister horn – Works. I tested it much to the disapproval of my neighbors.

First Aid Kit

New snapcover in 2016 – a few snaps busted

Two new batteries in 2015 – One deep cycle for running gear, one high cranking amps for the motor

Battery switch with none,1, 2 or both

One custom made stainless fishing rod tree

4 Big Jon tracks

8 Fishing poles – some with monofilament line (may need replacing), some with lead core

Dozens if not hundreds of spoons – some unopened, dozens of plugs, some flys and flashers

5 dipsey divers

3 8-lb & 5-10 lb cannonballs

4 Medium Downrigger Release clips

Porta Potty with chemicals & TP

Rope

Net

Fishbox (igloo 32 or 48 qt cooler)

Motor muffs for running it on trailer with a hose

Oils, lubes, Stabil to help winterize when its time

Rope Ladder for re-boarding (she sits high in the water)

 

 

Bad:

The steering is stiff (however I prefer it this way so it tracks better on the big lake)

Most of the gauges work but shouldn’t be relied on. I would just fill it with fuel every time I went out. I took the boat through the entire inland waterway from Burt Lake at the State Park boat launch to the dam in Cheboygan and only used 20 gallons. (It has a 55 gallon tank I believe) That was about 40 miles round trip including full-speed stretches across the lakes.

The wire on the downriggers may need to be replaced in the future.

She is old, but shows very well and has a lot of life left in her.

The throttle control seems to be a little temperamental and will keep it from starting unless you wiggle it to let it know it is in neutral. This was a minor issue in my mind and never interfered with me getting out on the water.
