Maybe I could plug the holes in the transom and tow it out to the sandbar as a permanently moored party raft.

That boat has theft of hurricane "salvage" written all over . . . there was a SeaTow guy here who was exercising "salver's rights" and stealing boats after Frances and Jeanne, and then reselling them as "salvage." Didn't last very long at all . . .

Whoever mentioned the bolster setups - it would theoretically make a great parts boat for another Stinger owner. We had a 39' Stinger that could have used the entire interior, (if it would fit) but that was five years ago!

Somebody has to save it. Looks sad lying on its side:signs069:

Hurts to see a Stinger reduced to that..
The windshield, hatches and bolster frames would bring twice what he is asking if they were taken off,cleaned up and put on ebay.
Probably the same old story, someone with lots of time but no brains or money bought it , took it apart to "restore it" figured out they couldnt restore a matchbox car ,stored it,lost the title and sold what they could and got stuck with a hull no one would buy.
Seen it happen again and again with cars and boats.
They think tearing apart a perfectly working vehicle is "restoring it" not realizing there isnt a chance in hell they can ever reassemble it.

I shed a tear every time I see "sad" boat . . . performance or otherwise . . . tri-hulls and bass boats excluded of course :drink:

my first repair project was a 17' seaswift tunnel hull that was on a trailer the folks at a party were going to pull it off and run over it with trucks.. this goes back a few years! I told the guy that it belonged to that I could fix it pretty easy... the nose was a real blunt point and had split at the seam and someone had caked on a bunch of resin to "fix" it. I told him I could do the structural repair it needed and make it float again. a year later the front 36" of the bottom was replaced, a 115 Chrysler outboard with a two stick shifter was installed and we launched it with an old milk truck with a "Question Authority" bumper sticker on the back I fell in love with speed on water that day..scared the hell out of my friends but the demon seed was planted! someone should go get that thing and make it shine like the day it was born... but the title thing is a biggie:evilb::evilb:
