Going to try to sell my Scout 28' Abaco. The boat is a 2005 with twin 225 Yamaha 4 strokes with 350 hours. Brand new Garmin 4010 and two Raymarine VHF radios. Taco outriggers, twin fish boxes, lots of storage. Very clean inside and out. Comes with a tri- axle trailer, boat cover, and enclosure. Really don't want to sell the boat. I found out I will be stationed at NAS Corpus Christi and I won't have time for the boat. I don't want it to sit and not be used. Great fishing and cruising boat. Nada value is 57k, I am looking to get $54000. Hoping to sell it before I move away from Pensacola. Pm me if your interested.
Thanks, hate to sell it but all part of being in the military, just wish I could get more gulf fishing out of it before letting it go. It's a great platform to fish out of.
Tank is 210 gal. Wide open burns 44 gph and that is running between 47 to 50 mph. Best cruising is 23 gph and that is 30 mph. I normally troll at 6 to 9 and burn about 5 gph.
It has one main live well that is I believe 35 gal. The cooler can also be used as a live well and I believe its close to the same size. I always used it as a cooler because I never needed the extra live well.
It is at Sherman Cove probably the four or five boat from the end of the dry storage area. I love the boat but it's going to be hard moving it all over the southeast during flight school.
I will have to go by tomorrow and take pictures of the cabin. It has an AC/DC frig that works great. Not huge but nice for lunches and drinks on fishing trips. The stove is an alcohol single burner. Honestly never used it but it works. Also has a SS sink and a microwave that can be used when hooked up to shore power. It's sleeps three. The front bunk has plenty of room. The mid bunk is smaller but would be fine for two children or an adult. It has three storage compartments under the main bunk and another compartment under the mid bunk. The head is a vacuum system with a 6-8 gal holding tank. It also has an overboard pump for the tank. Main drawback from the cabin is no AC unit.
Honestly I only used the boat for fishing. Most fishing trips I would take the cushions out and use the cabin for storage. Only features I really used were the head and storage besides that everything else was just a bonus. I can see where the cabin is set up for overnight/camping but I bought the boat for fishing.
In 94 at NAS Oceana!!! Was at P-Cola from 71-75 at VT-4, and then at NASC at Water Survival fron 83-87!!!! Have relatives that live in P-Cola so I go there quite often to go fishing on charters or pick up's if possible. Thank you Tom

I am hoping to select Oceana for my first squadron assignment once I get winged. It will depend more on what platform I end up selecting but that's where I want to go. I love Pensacola and hoping to get Whiting over Corpus for primary but not so sure right now.
I haven't forgotten about the pictures of the cabin. I was planning on going yesterday or today but New Years Eve got the best of me :whistling:, so it will be tomorrow.
Nice pictures wish I could hit the lottery it would mine!!! Looked at it a few month's back!!! Are you going to be a Pilot or NFO!!!! Good luck in either of them!! Thanks again for the pics. Tom:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

I am contracted to be a pilot. I am really excited to start and get to the fleet in a few years. Thanks for looking at the boat. If you are ever in town and want to go offshore fishing let me know. That is as long as I haven't found someone to buy the boat. :thumbsup:
I am really interesting in purchasing your boat
Could you please let me know how I can get in contact with you
I am new to the forum and I do not know how to pm you
Best Regards,
Drove by this boat yesterday, great boat. Use it until the middle of summer and then sell it. I didn't get too much free time in pilot training however.
Yeah I am not real sure how much time I will have once I get into primary. I have heard mixed responses on how much free time there is on the weekends of primary. I guess I will find out in a few months.
As I mentioned to you before, I am interested in purchasing your boat
I am a cash buyer. Not sure if you still want to sell or not
Thanks for the reply
I burned the candle on both ends and did alright. Best of luck too you and if if I can be of any assistance give me a shout(but I have been flying snfos around for the last 7 yrs!).
Thanks. I just am ready to start. Been waiting in A-pool for close to 5 months now. Seems like the SNFO have been pushed through a lot faster. Once I get started, getting my wings will be my number one priority but hopefully can still get some fishing in on the weekends.
