I bought it from a guy in Huntsville. He bought it from a dealer when he lived in St Pete, FL. It is a custom build LT25 that came pretty bare. From there he added all the components he wanted from what he told me. I was able to get a great deal on it. It’s definitely a sweet set up, and I won’t have to do much. No more paddling for this guy!
How are you liking it?

Its for sale on Craigslist. Seems like a quick turnaround for a boat.
Both Reds' and the white gheenoe are for sale currently

Just sold it Friday actually. I liked it, however I feel like it limited me somewhat to where I could fish.
I ended up buying a used Key West Stealth Flats boat yesterday. The ability to go faster and bring both of my nephews are what swayed me to get a bigger boat.
As far as the Gheenoe went, I loved it. Simple, no maintenance boat. The guy that bought it has another boat already and this will be his secondary boat to take on quick trips with his son.
I think the gheenoe is a great little boat, however for me I just needed a little more space and capability to make the longer runs when needed. I fish mostly Delacroix, Hopedale and Bayou B. Sometimes those 30 min boat rides are necessary.

The gheenoe is great for quick trips or getting to places you cant go in a normal boat.
Not great for 30 mile runs, big windy bays, 3 people.

They’re fun. I fished mine saturday and forgot how fun they are.

They are a ton of fun. I really wished I could have kept it and still got the other boat, however I just do not have room for 2 boats right now. I think I will own another at some point in my life.

Just picked up a 13' model in MS for me and my son to use for duck hunting. Plan to put a 10 hp and some small modifications to make it hunting friendly.

How the hell do you pole that thing and not flip it?

Whats a used one like that going for?

Nice one man. Enjoy

I paid $700 for this '09 model. Had missed a few in the mobile/pensacola area at around the same price, but in worse condition. Bought this one from the original owner. Said he used it about 25 times and hasn't used it in the last 2-3 years. Could just slap a motor on and use it. Think I am going to remove the center box and put a jack plate for this first year and then maybe some more modifications next year.

Make sure you bolt the motor on
Posted on 4/5/18 at 8:38 am to LSUengr
I'd like to get one to fish Lake Bouef, my boat can't fit under the bridge and I have to take the long way around to get there. This would be perfect for afternoon trips.
Posted on 4/5/18 at 8:50 am to CHEDBALLZ
We might be able to make some afternoon trips happen this summer if you want. I work right there

Definitely. Read a story of a guy who just put a new motor on his and on a test drive it came off somehow. Went down about 60' feet in the middle of a shipping channel. Couldn't recover it.

You work in Raceland?
Right now is the time to go, Lake Runners/Red Ear Sunfish/Shell Crackas about to be stacked.

Did I not see yours for sale on Facebook?
Posted on 4/6/18 at 6:08 am to Riseupfromtherubble
if you are looking for a gheenoe your best bet is to search classified ads in Florida.
