In April 2010 a Hull Truth poster by the name of jojola posted a message offering his 1990 Wahoo 1650 Striper for sale. The message came complete with pictures. It was such a beautiful boat, so well maintained and outfitted, that I wanted to repost a lot of the info here (including the pictures) as a source of ideas for other Wahoo owners.

Here’s a gallery of pictures of the boat.

The text below is jojola’s, with a few minor edits by me…

This boat was a project that my son and I worked on for well over a year, unfortunately I must now sell her. The history of this boat is I’m the second owner. This boat has the original Wahoo registration card. It comes with all manuals and Yamaha service guide. It has only been used in saltwater once, it’s whole life it was a fresh water boat. After every use the motor gets flushed, and before storage the carb’s are run dry and then drained, lower unit oil changed, and motor fogged.
