Asking 4500, cant expect much.
Nice looking in black.
Could use a merc for that all black look.
As w/ everything else... start w/ the $4000, dump another $35k to have her just right.

Storm,

Absolutely right, The 4k is the easy and inexpensive part..The rebuild if done by Banana specs is the expensive and time consuming part..Then at the end, your in for 40k and everybody wants to give you 10k for it...But, that is the fun of restoring an Old School Ride ...

I emailed the guy and with in a few minutes of him responding to me he jacked the price up to $4995

???

I asked him why he increased the price and got no response.

I think that may be this boat thats pictured on the left

I do know that the transom was replaced on that boat in 1999 and it is twice as thick as a normal banana.

The guy that did it was a boat builder and it really came out great.

Very strong.

I think it is a good boat that is cosmetically challenged.

Default They are nice but money pit

I have had and still have an old boat with way to much into it to here it is an old boat and worth 10-15k, wanna buy a 77 pantera with 40k into the motor alone for 20k? But if you got the time and the money it sure can be fun!
