regardless, it is used. i have seen your work XT and if i put $3k in a boat that i ONLY get the used interior out of... I could have taken a meaty chunk of the bill to have you re-upholster mine. I hardly think i would have a deal. The remainder is only worth what someone would pay. And its a little easy for you to say. You built these things. What if i mess up the screen taking it off? As a technician i could remove the engine, drive, transom assy properly and useable for anyone else that was interested. factor in freight and all and it makes all those things now located in Bettendorf Iowa worth a little less. Even if i knew the screen was worth that I dont think i would have went for it not running/not knowing for sure there is an engine in it. So i get a 1998 interior, outdrive, transom assy and windscreen? And all out of my pocket unit I sell it? I didnt see the bargain there. He gets it running i already have a boat for it to go in. now i know a fair price for a windscreen i feel more comfortable. but i wont cry if it goes elsewhere. I guess you just had to be there. It was all quite underwhelming.

Yeah it doesn't seem priced too bad, but would have to see more recent pictures if there is a difference between the ad and the actual boat.
Trailer - should be worth $1500 easy
Windscreen - at least $500
Drive/Transom Assembly - $1000 or so
Engine - $500
Then you still have the interior and various other parts.

Alright, you twisted my arm lol. He found the titles. He has it in a shop and thawed out. It is missing a thunderbolt ign module. I have one. I am going saturday am and going to hear it run and verify its ok. and then buy it. barring any complications.
guess i was being cheap. But look at it from my angle. you came to a boat with no titles or proof he owns it and you cant even see if there is an engine in it. would you fork over 3K????

Nope, wouldn't go through the hassle if the titles were lost. The boat you don't really need it since it's going to get cut up anyhow, but you would definitely want the one for the trailer if your state requires it.

My trailer has new lamps. ALL new wiring and is hooked to a 7 pin connector. but she is getting old. I trust her. But if i can upgrade i will. I run 70+MPH to the ozarks every year. And in town she is a trailer queen. So I use my trailer often. Plus mine has an odd mount in the front. it works but it is above and below the loop. guess you would just have to see it.

Hey man, just got to listening to your voice mail. You might be running into more hassle then its worth on this boat. If you say the boat is falling apart, meaning not just the delamination. I would be worried that the motor was not winterized at last time of pulling it out of the water. The motor might fire and run, but I have a feeling that once it gets warmed up, cracks are going to open up..anyway its up to you on what you want to do..you still haven't even given me a figure on what you would want for the windscreen, I need a figure to even go off of. How is the windscreen held on to the boat anyway>?
