PROJECT 48
We located this fresh-out-of-the-box, low hour (< 150 hrs), and freshwater only Super Sport 13 in Western Idaho from the original owner. The boat was purchased from Adventure Sport Boats Inc. in Hamilton, OH in 1994 and used sparingly on Lake Michigan until the owner relocated from Chicago to Sagle, Idaho in 2004. Upon arrival, the motor was winterized and she was stored inside a heated garage under cover until acquired by TDC Marine.
This boat is in absolutely factory new condition (read: mint). The varnish is original, shines like new and the hull is perfect with zero imperfections and still retains its factory high gloss shine. There are zero added screw holes anywhere in the interior. She is equipped with her original 1991 Evinrude 40hp twin cylinder two-stroke, electric start/choke outboard with power trim/tilt.
The Evinrude 40hp twin cylinder outboard is known as a very reliable, high performing, and lightweight (185 lbs) motor which is desirable for the classic 13’ hull since it has a very high power/weight ratio and can support watersports activities with ease. This motor has been fully serviced (water pump, spark plugs, fuel filter, carb sync, gear oil, etc.), retains all the original paint with zero corrosion and is in new operating and mechanical condition.
The 13’ Super Sport model was introduced in 1984 and remained in production until 1994. The Super Sport was the most highly optioned 13’ model available from Whaler with mahogany interior. Super Sports received a full wrap-around stainless railing, upgraded mahogany interior including extended side steering console with forward thwart seat backrest, full width aft thwart seat backrest and molded storage compartment as standard equipment.
This Super Sport also has the factory optioned Wm J. Mills canvas mooring cover (forest green), unused Wm J Mills bimini sun top w/boot (forest green), full interior cushion set in parchment w/brown piping, red Ritchie Explorer Model 15 compass, Perko bow light/chock assembly with SS pole stern light package, and auto/manual electric bilge pump. She has never been kept in the water overnight and never had any bottom paint. She is fitted to her original 1993 EZ Loader Model 14-16 1250 lb capacity trailer.
We have had many incredible 13’ Super Sports, but this is, hands down, the best one that we have gotten our hands on!
