If it's the one that was at TMP, don't waste your time...or money. I spent $2000 to fly myself and a buddy down there to look at that piece of chit. The pictures that I was sent before going down there were about 4-5 years old. It was so bad.....When we pulled up, there was a guy in the cabin spraying the walls with a garden hose. They had installed two new batteries for a stereo system and the screws for the holddowns were sticking out the bottom of the boat about 1/2 of an inch. There was alot more....You can't make this chit up!!!
Homey probably sunk it on the trailer!!
I think that they wanted $75K for it.
Good times, good times!!!

I guess I'm glad I didn't go down there. I didn't have a problem with the engines or drives and figured a rebuild on them would be around 10K if I did most of the labor. Interior I figured could wait a year. What concerned me the most was all the electrical connections if it was in salt water.
The pics I had made the boat look OK. I'm glad somebody knew this boat. I decided on the one I bought before I posted here for anyone that knew this boat. Thanks Oldschool.

I saw pictures of the sunk one also. Im in the middle of re-doing a bullet that is in great shape and the cost is a lot more then i thought it would be.
The sunk boat isnt worth messing with even if you got it for free.
