Who ever bought it did very good.
You can't break the boat and all this nonsense about fiberglass work is unfounded. It's cosmetic. So essentially you need to re-rig and drive it.
The problem is 2 engine packages and all the add-ons will exceed it's value in this economy.
Now the do-it-your-selfer that can build big power will have a great boat! Look at what people spend re-doing late 60s, early 70s vintage cars and at the end of the day no profit.
Whoever got it, have fun! You have my word it is a great boat!

I won the auction...I hope it works out!
I am a do it yourselfer and have no intent (or $$) to make it original again.
I plan to put moderate power in it(500hp), it will be a longer term project. I have funds to buy it as it is, but have to sell my current boat to get money for drive train.
Seems like cosmetic work to me and I think it has a lot of potential.
Please tell me this is a good boat!! Am not looking to get max resale value here, but dont want to lose money if i ever have to sell it.
