A 2003 Pro-Line 20 Sport center console on a LoadRite tandem-axle trailer, powered by a single Mercury 150 SaltWater V6 outboard. The owner reports freshwater use only, with the boat stored inside heated storage every winter. Located in Avon Lake, Ohio, about 20 miles west of Cleveland.
The builder's plate rates the hull at 7 persons or 1,000 lbs, 1,700 lbs with motor and gear included, and a maximum of 200 HP. Engine hours are not documented.
The helm has a Lowrance display, compass, tachometer and speedometer, and a switch panel behind a console windshield with grab rail. Forward casting deck with under-deck storage and a forward-facing console seat. Vertical rod holders, bow rail, and a boarding platform with swim ladder at the transom.
Why This Boat
A 20-foot center console is a workable size for Lake Erie. The boat tows behind a half-ton truck and launches at any public ramp on the lake, so a buyer can fish Cleveland one weekend and run to the islands or Sandusky Bay the next without paying for a slip.
Mercury sold this 150 as part of its SaltWater series, and the cowling carries that name. The owner reports the boat has only been in freshwater. That history matters most on a hull this old, because the corrosion and electrolysis that age a saltwater boat have not been part of this one's life.
The 2-stroke burns more fuel than a modern 4-stroke and runs on premix oil, so a buyer cross-shopping a newer outboard should account for that. In exchange it is light and inexpensive to service, and Mercury's 2003-era V6 has a long service record on the Great Lakes.
Twenty-three winters inside heated storage keeps gelcoat, wiring and upholstery out of the freeze-thaw cycle that does most of the damage to boats wintered outdoors in Ohio.
Condition & Next Steps
Freshwater only, stored inside heated storage every winter. The console top and forward seat cushion show wear consistent with the boat's age.
