I am selling a large USED commercial Hypalon raft. I bought it a while ago, and have never used it. I have stored it in air-conditioned storage since I got it, and have filled it up with air a few times to make sure it is doesn't leak. I had big plans of taking the family rafting with it, but it has still never happened. I don't know a lot about this thing, but the person I bought it from said it was from a commercial rafting company that went out of business, and they sold their rafts off. It has definitely been used a bunch, and it is an older raft. It has cracking along a lot of the rubber places, and some of the D-ring mounts should be replaced. The rubber around some of the D-rings is cracked and from what I was told, can be removed and replaced. Some of the seams are lifting, but it doesn't affect it air holding ability. The 4 main chambers all seem to hold air very well, and two of the three center thwarts seem to also. One of the center thwarts was not completely hard like the rest of the boat this morning, since filling it yesterday afternoon. It may have been just because the valve was not completely shut, because when I checked the valve this morning, it was not shut tight. Either way, it holds air very well, and it should serve someone well for several years. My plan was to use it occasionally with my family, but we haven't used it yet, and I don't want to store it anymore. It is full of air right now for whoever wants to take a look at it. Comes with an electric pump, that fills the raft in about 10 minutes. New these rafts cost around $4000.00. I am hoping to get my money out of it, or trade it for something else we may use. Hopefully somebody out there can get some use out of this. Located in NW Peoria/Sun CIty. Would like to get $600 or trade for guns 22-250 .223 .243 O/U 12 Gauge 1911 .40 ? NO junk! Would be willing to add cash to the right deal. Thanks
