Any guesses on where it will end up? It will take $50k to finish it, more if you go crazy power.
I'm guessing $45k.

I climbed in this boat a month or so ago. The gel coat and interior came out really nice. The trailer is brand new. Can't believe all the room under that deck :D Of course this, coming from someone with a little cat!

Any idea why they re-did allthe gelcoat and fiberglass?

I know nothing about this boat and I am sure there are many good deals on ebay.

I was looking at a car on ebay that had some great pictures with only 21k miles. I inspected the car before I bid and that car had more wear and tear than other cars I had looked at with 60k miles. Alot more wear and tear.

Be careful

Guy who ownes it bought it for a project. The hull was fine, just faded and the gel-coated was a dated design. He wanted an updated look.

24 bids. It's up to $30,000+ at this point.

Someone mentioned another $50,000 to get it going. Why would it take that much? $4,000 for each drive, and $6-8,000 for each motor (conservative motors). That would total $24,000. How much is this boat worth? I've been contemplating a winter project but don't want to lose my a$s either!!! HELP?!!?!?!?!

It will be 50k plus depending on what it needs i.e Transom assembly, hydraulic steering, drives, k-planes etc...

Or , say you are already holding a old 30 something scarab or baja with bravos and 502's , would be a easy swap , or up grade , or whatever. Kinda like when a hermit crab upgrades into a bigger and better shell.:)

My 38 Cigarette just went on e-bay. It doesn't need anything & the reserve is somewhere in the neighborhood of 60k. Might be something to look at......

I am wondering how much weight was added to this hull with all the reinforcing that the seller is saying was done. It could end up takeing real big power to make it move.
