He filled the motors up with a garden hose???? This guy must have been angry about something. That took a while to do to a boat.

Doesn't it look like there is a bunch of silty dirt in the bilge , which leads me to believe that it was sank and was under water for a while. Or am I seeing things.

Looks to me like its a milkshake mix of water/oil......probably from pulling the oil filters and dumping them in the bilge. and if he ran them all with no oil filters, the motors would have pumped all the oil straight into the bilge. combine that with the hose water = milkshake.

that took some time and energy.
the POS didn't miss much!
he should be drawn and quartered!

I think there is 10K of salvagable parts there
but what to do with the hull?
I've heard a chainsaw and chipper would make it disappear?

here all you need to do is pull fuel tank+$60 and take it to the dump,
huge landcrawlers come over and obliterate it before you even leave the dump.

It also sat outside in the cold after the damage was done, so there is a chance of freeze damage. Just a fyi for potential buyers.

This boat is going to either be a home run or a biggest headache. Follow your gut i guess.
