9 foot Colorado XT inflatable pontoon boat. Colour: Sage green / Grey.

This item is 4 years old, but still in it's original packaging which has only been opened to check that it was all there (I found that two of the valves had cracked, so had replacements shipped out). Sadly, the wife says it's time to go.

This thing is the ultimate fly fishing platform - take the pontoons off and throw the frame in your ute or station wagon to get to a lake. I've even seen blokes around Taupo driving with them on the roof rack.

This is a nice stable boat. It's size means that there is a huge amount of storage, and it's even big enough to mount a small outboard motor (or you might like to buy it together with the electric outboard I bought specifically for it and we can combine shipping: http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=786141290)

The boat has a wheel that you can use to move it to/from the water, which you can lock out of the way so it doesn't slow you down on the water.

The boat is river capable, but would probably be best employed on a lake.

I will include a hand pump that I brought at the same time (it floats, in case you need it out on the water), and a auto-inflating life jacket.

Shipping This thing weighs just under 50kg in the box, so I can only freight it. I will have to confirm shipping costs with the winner based on your address. To give you an indication, Mainfreight have quoted me these prices for shipping to their Depots: Auckland: $99.43 Tauranga: $98.41 Christchurch: $160.69

These retailed for $1999 in NZ a couple of years ago. Snag yourself a bargain!

If you want to collect it yourself, the buyer will need to collect it fro Linton Camp - 10 mins South of Palmerston North.
