    Identification

    Maybe i missed it, but what happened to all the gambler info that was pinned at the top? I thought I had a 209 and im trying to find my title, but I noticed the plate that my trolling motor plug goes into says Intimidator. Is this normal? Was going to look at history and it has gone away. lol

    Re: Identification (95Gambler)

    I have a 1996 209GE wih a 225efi and it also says Intimidator where the trolling motor plugs in. My title says 209TE and it takes 30ft of garage to store it so it is unlikely it is not a 209. I would say it is normal. I will be in Florida next week and was going to try to stop by and see Mike and buy more shirts. I will try to remember to ask him.

    Re: Identification (sivlersnake)

    Guys, I'm really confused...I have no clue as to why they would have put an Intimidator plate on the 209...but if there is more than one out there you know as well as I do that there is more...

    Re: Identification (95Gambler)

    I have no clue as to why they did it but all the Gamblers that I've seen (mine included) from that time had an intimidator plate. I've got a 209 as well with the title.

    Re: Identification (95Gambler)

    Call Gambler with your HIN number and you will know.

    To the guys that say they have a 209 with the Intimidator TM plate. Are your boats the limited "DALE E." model?

    mine is not. not that I'm aware of any way. The plate is only a piece of aluminum with intimidator screened on it. Title says nothing of Dale on it.

    Re: Identification (sivlersnake)

    My guess without calling Gambler with the HIN number is that< Gambler had a pile of the bow plates with Intimidator on them.

    There has never been an Intimidator model, other than the "DALE E." model that measured 20'-9".

    Re: Identification (mainegambler)

    Gambler said it was a 209 TE. Said it had two windshields and that helped identify. Trolling motor plate doesn't make a diff. Well now I know.

    Re: Identification (95Gambler)

    Men says Intimidator too, but I have one. However, when we used to sell these back in the 90's I saw both plates, ones that said GAMBLER and ones that said Intimidator.
