1996 BAJA BOSS 302. WITH KEYS, THIS UNIT WAS SANK AND THE ENGINES WILL NOT FIRE UP, ALSO THIS BOAT DOES NOT COMES WITH A TRAILER. THE ENTIRE HULL IS WATER STAINED BUT DOESNT APPEAR TO HAVE ANY NOTABLE SCUFFS OR SCRATCHES, THE KEEL IS CHIPPED ON A COUPLE SPOTS, THE RUB RAIL IS SCUFFED AND SOME OF THE EMBLEMS ARE FADED BUT OTHER THAT THE REST OF THE EXTERIOR HAS USUAL WEAR FOR THE YEAR.

THE CONTROL CONSOLE HAS SEVERAL SCREW HOLES LEFT BY REMOVED ACCESSORIES, THE DECK IS SCUFFED AND STAINED AND THERE IS WATER IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. THIS UNIT IS POWERED WITH TWIN MERCRUISER 7.4L Â INBOARD ENGINES HOWEVER THE FLUIDS TOOK IN WATER AND THEY WILL NOT TURN OVER. THE PROPELLER SEEM TO BE IN GREAT SHAPE AND THE REST OF THIS UNIT IS NICE WITH USUAL WEAR.

I wonder how long is "an extended period of time". Would it even be worth rebuilding? If it sat under water for a while I'm sure the stringers and transom were penetrated. At least I would thing. I guess sell the b1 units and maybe parts off the engines? But to rebuild it would cost a lot I'm guessing.

Sold for 5500

Wow!! That's going to be a big job getting the boat back. On top of a ton of $$$.

Yep! And when it's finished, no matter HOW nice it is, it will STILL be a 1996 Boat that had previously sunk, hope the new owner likes it because he is probably gonna own it forever

Such a shame...and after the money you put into it, it will still outweigh what it's worth. Make more parting it out then rebuilding it.

says the auction goes till 11/6 with hi bid at $50 right now...

or the boat will get a wrap and dried out and sold to an unsuspecting buyer.

Looks like at $5500 the reserve was not met. The Buy it now came down 1K tho.

Also crashedtoys has some pretty high gate fees, buyer fees, loading fees, fees for the fees, paper fees, ect. At about 5500 it would cost a guy prob 62-6300 to get it out the door. And that dosent include the $200 a year membership fee...
