A hull in need of $90k repair after a fire is no longer a hull, it's garbage, a parts boat from engine bay bulkhead forward. I feel really sorry for the poor SOB who buys a boat like that, unaware of the nightmare heat damage means in the long run.

Btw., does anyone know the VIN/HIN of this hull? Just to make sure I know which boat to avoid, permanently.

Caveat emptor.

Wow! Cannot believe they are ask 100k for this thing after the damages. Even with fresh power, with 90k in assessed damaged I doubt this boat is even worth the 50 they were asking. I wanna see the damage.

texasboatrepo = Paul Casey

Much of his inventory comes from auction or NL.

A friendly web search will yield his phone number.

This junk dealer has been kicked off OSO in the past more than one time. Garbage like this is just trying to flip something for a gold mine. I understand making a buck but this is just another example of how unreasonable people like this are.

A 2001 400SS can be bought in perfect running condition for under $99K. Why would anyone want to pizz away $99K and then several more $K to repair. :eekdrop:

Thanks to Capt Steve for his upstanding efforts to watch out for the Formula community. :thankyouthankyou:

There is NOTHING in the definition of "fixed" that a junk dealer could convince me to buy. The scabbing, patching and overall cover-ups would be the only fixing done to the demise of buyer beware.

Sad bunch of people.
