like others said, dont expect to just jump in that thing and enjoy your weekends, expect to dump a lot of mony in it and work on it during the weekends.

if it was left uncovered i would'nt think of it, they have wood floors that are probably rotted.

i like you comment daredevil its true if the engines blow or one blows i'll just part it out i never thought boats were alot of work till i got on this site and expensive i already checked the boat out i didnt feel any soft spots in the floor he has no time to run it so he gave me the go ahead to drop it in the water and start it and make sure stuff works isnt there a way to start the engines without putting the boat in the water?

Cant go wrong with a $1200 boat. Make SURE the title is clear or that $1200 boat could turn into a HUGE headache..

If it floats, runs and drives and would only be out $1200, definately.

Where in MI? The trailer looks to not have had a valid plate on it for years. Make sure it runs, and if you balk at it I would be interested.....
