- Stock #[removed phone] - Super High Powered Freshwater Rocket with low hours!Over three decades ago, Checkmate boats of Bucyrus, Ohio, designed a new V-bottom hull that dominated outboard performance craft racing. Today, Checkmate's roots live on in boats like the Convincor 253. It's trademark Checkmate -- fast.High performance is clearly reflected in the Convincor's custom graphics and overall design. The boat's lines are clean and straightforward, yet dynamic enough to grab your attention. Like all Checkmates, 100-percent end-grain balsa core is used, and each layer of 'glass is sanded and ground smooth before another layer is applied. Checkmate's upholstery work is first-rate, the integration of interior/exterior graphics smartly coordinated and construction details have been well thought-through, with every screw, bolt, pop rivet and backing plate placed for maximum strength. All seats are thickly padded, generously sized and well-secured. The molded dash features switches and gauges arranged in a horseshoe pattern with tech and speedo positioned front and center above the others.Belowdecks you'll find a simple but spacious cabin highlighted by lounges, and ample storage. For ease of cleaning, the fiberglass floor liner is covered by snap-in marine carpeting. Aft, the smartly upholstered hatch opens wide via two rather unique stainless steel cantilevered hinges to reveal MerCruiser's new CUSTOM HIGH PERFORMANCE-- 750 Horse, 548cu. That was built by a marine engine specialistAt top-end, the boat is exciting to drive with a level angle of attack. The Kiekhaefer Zero-effort dual lever controls are positioned well for trimming and tabbing. With Hydraulic steering....This boat tracks straight and true, riding on its tail like all Checkmates do.This listing has now been on the market a couple months.
