Default BYE BYE 312 Stinger

I offered this boat free a while ago and got no solid responses. I'm sure it was partly my fault by not replying fast enough but oh well. This boat has just been in the way and since I had no trailer I had to improvise. First picture was last night, last one was after the stripping.

Dont get me wrong, I love this boat, the lines are beautiful but it had to go. Need to make room for long dongs cat. (I'm trying)

yeah it kinda hurt cutting it up, hopefully I'll make a few dollars on parts. I was surprised to see it had a 155 gallon tank, yet had three fuel gauges?

Mange, I remember your 312, nice boat. And completely forgot that I took it in front of the church, I just pulled over cause it had NO tongue weight. (NO motors)

Good one...

I replied to your thread under the "General Section" and never heard back from you. I have a tri-axle and was ready to drive down to grab it but you said someone else beat me to the punch.

Why did you cut it up?!?!?!?!?

I'll take the hatches off your hands.......................contact me!

ve3lt, someone came down and said they wanted it, said they would be back in a week, never heard from them again.

The reason it was cut was only due to the "0" tongue weight on my truck. Very unsafe driving conditions.

The hatches would gladly have been yours but....

Thats exactly what the problem was. I e-mailed you multiple times and even included my phone number and address! Thats a real shame seeing them crushed and not restored. Good luck with your part sales, Nick.
