Not a scam

the boat is for sale here in Michigan

The price advertised is less motors and drives but the current owner is working on putting in power and drives and then selling it for an adjusted price (Upward)

I have seen the boat, it is real clean

I called the day after it sold to the current broker. Boat is set up for #6's and has no power/drives currently. 2 months ago it could have been had for 60K sitting on a trailer. Broker bought it to flip it.

60K is all it is worth. You are looking at a min of 80k to put something decent in it. You need motors ,drives (#6's) unless you pay for the changeover to a Bravo set up, either way I think you are looking at 80K. Fred's old tiger (also a flat bottom) can be had in the 130's all ready to go! and there are a few T/S tigers out there that can be had for 180's. Just my .02

Thaaaaaaaaat's what I thought.

gonna pay another 100k for motors/drives (at least!!) better off just buying Kenny Boyce's American Flagged Tiger w/900's and 6's in PERFECT condition for 200k!

That broker is going to be in for a suprise when it doesn't sell for a loooooong time.

Boat sold on Ebay about 4mos ago for 65k. I was second in line to buy it at that price if the current owner didn't. 100k is about 30k too much coin.
