Was considering looking at this boat.. What's up with it the guy on the phone sounded like an idiot .. More info please don't want to waste sending a mechanic to look

mechanically the boat is ok, has input shaft seal leak on one of the drives and needs trim indicator cables. Cosmetically it is horrible! The surveyor told me it had some gelcoat issues, but I had already bought my ticket and he said maybe it would be ok to me or I might want to fix it and I could lowball him, so I went anyways. When I got there it was bad! The whole top deck needed to be ground off and reshot. The gel was cracking everywhere on the top deck, some of the cracks where so wide I could fit my ups envelope in them like the gel was lifting up from the fiberglass. So when I asked the owner why he never told me about these or never showed me pictures of them, he acted like he had never seen them before. He said he never wears his glasses on the boat so he hadn't ever seen them. Ya right, the guy straight up lied and misled me, it was a lesson learned on my part, just don't want to see anyone else waste there time. Also the hull sides where scratched up and had cracks in the paint! One spot he did show me in pictures, I specifically asked about it and he had told me it was taken care of! Of course that a lie!

I saw one boat for sale where the guy said the boat was brand new, never registered, and never on the water. I found pictures this a-hole posted on a forum where the boat was on the water WITH registration numbers, and he was bragging about how fast the boat was.:rolleyes: Michael |
Too bad. Sharp looking boat and it looks pretty decent in that picture.
