For me that boat is just too old and much more to fix it up compared to what can be purchased on the market, I do not see one thing about it that does not need attention it looks like a big money pit to me.. but it is a boat they all are....

Probably is a water line. It sat outside my buddies shop for at leat two years uncovered thru all 4 seasons.

It was on Craigslist a LONG time with no bites, at least 2 years, I heard it was under water at one point, the source if true is reliable, but was LONG ago.... the boat needs LOTS of work.....he had it on swap shop for 30,000 no way it will pull that, maybe at best the 18 it went to he should take, he paid 15,000 I think

And she is back up for sale....

Got to love the ebay games.

It will be for sale for a long time, it was a "ok" buy at 15,000.... worth that in parts, but he has had it for a few months and selling already.... hmmmmmmm

Not worth much at all from what i see, cable steering, old controls, poor wrap , crap motors trs boat. Needs lots of attention and money. Go buy one with better hardware and shape and you won't be chasing the 8 ball.

Completely off topic, but why is the cafe racer you built back in your possession and for sale stripped?

What's the story?

From looking at the picture, it MAY, but not sure. You would think that if it was and they cleaned up the carpet, that they would clean that up too, but you never know with people. The other thing I noticed was that it had Mercruiser external steering at one time. Why did they take it off?

Probably had bigger power in past and replaced with stock to sell... Or sunk power.... Besides they say recent rebuilds I call Bs no way those engines been touched in a long time ...

En heard the boat was stripped by owner due to lot of money spent on motors that didn't last very long. If Phil wants to get into I'm sure he will if not I respect that . As much as I heard he got beat up on it and not due to his fault of any way.
