DESCRIPTION:

1997 Shamrock 260 Express with a Yanmar 240HP 4LHA-STP diesel. Relocated to Europe and unfortunately there is no way for me to import my Shamrock into the EU so I’ve got to unexpectedly sell it. Boat comes with an Owen’s & Sons custom tandem 10k trailer that was built in the spring of 2024.

Boat and trailer are located in the Gulfport/St Petersburg, Florida area. Boat has twin 75 gallon fuel tanks (full!), enclosed head with holding tank, swim platform, dive ladder, windlass, fish boxes, live well, refrigerator, Garmin Echomap 7” UHD2 plotter, and 2 year old Bennett trim tabs.

Boat runs fine but can use some cosmetic work and maintenance. Used very little since hurricane Helene and Milton. Boat was out of the water on the trailer for those two storms. I am currently flying but I’ll add lots of photos and a detailed list of what it needs/has within the next 24 hours.

Boat needs a new home as I’m now overseas except for brief periods.

Asking or best reasonable offer.
