Cabin and cockpit don't look like they got wet. My guess is the owner treated it like a car and never opened the hatches/cleaned the bilge. The drives and deck look just as beat. Still a decent deal if it can be bought for under $150k.

The American flag 47 is a proven performer and has been run on lake Erie for years. It hauls

Still......I have not seen one with only 2 700s, but this same year with stag 850/1075 twins sells in the 275 range. Doesn't take a lot to get 850 out of a 700sci. What a great boat to buy in the fall |
I would not want to invest into one of the old 47, with rear seat configurations and off brand power package like this
This 47 has a wrap, ( not paint) , 6 bolster seats, fresh water, and reliable merc power package,,,,,, With an aluminum myco trailer,,, would be a great investment for a classic reliable, prestine white boat,,, http://marker17marine.com/boat/2007-...ain-lightning/ |

I can only image this boat needs alot of TLC, and might be dog with only a pair of 700"s
This might be a better LOTO boat for you to consider,,,, http://www.offshoreonly.com/classifi...o57056-en.html Ops just saw the above post, carry on. . . . |

Look close at those engines, they have dirt all the way up to the tops. Superchargers have a coating that could only come from dirty water, unless the hatches were left open for about 2 years.
For the year, I would assume it sunk as well. But if it sunk freshwater the price is reflective of it and it is not a big deal. I think that boat pulls low 200s mint I looked at it on my big screen. The rest of the boat is clean, any fountain that gets water in the bilge it will find its way to the cabin. Why would someone pay to clean the entire boat minus the bilge? If I lived close I would put my hands on it....now I am really curious. :) |

You'ld have to be looney tunes to buy that boat..
sorry.. couldn't help myself.. |
If it's a wrap like SS said at least you could get that part off,,,

the dirty o7 boat at a minimum needs both six's rebuilt and both top ends rebuilt. there's about 20k to add to the purchase price. food for thought. btw, the flag boat runs 120 mph, i've been friends with him for a long time. it is maintained with an open check book to say the least. he adds c16 to the mix just for the hell of it lol. the engine builder is jimmy z, one of the best i have ever come across. he maintains the motors, could easily build them if he wanted but they have been sent back to sterling for the fresh internals. the boat just received 20k in props, like i said money wasn't the object here. if someone was interested i think you could just about name your price. he doesn't drive the boat anymore, he likes his 165 mph skater a bit more lol.
