It's been advertised here on a local website for a few years, originally wanted a lot more. I've never bothered to go and look at it, way too much of a project for me. If it's restorable, and I think anything can be restored, I'll defend his price somewhat. 250,000 baht is about 7,800 USD (divide by 32) and it would have cost him about 5k in import fees and shipping, jammed sideways into a container.

Cigarettes are almost unheard of here. I've thought about that old girl for a full resto and outboard conversion but I'd have to palm all the work out.

I'll wait until he lists it 'free to good home' then arrange to have it picked up. I could grow banana palms in it.

Here's our local equivalent of Craigslist, it's pretty lame.....

Maybe I'll buy it and send it to you to fix up, with outboards of course. (apologies to the many hard core Cig fans)

My ZR, "Fonzi" has done 13 hours in nearly 2 years, runs like new. (Just not very often) I've got a holding deposit at the moment. Awfully cheap, there's no market for decent sports boats here. If it wasn't sold in the next couple of months it was going to get a full makeover but a sale is better.

I could be 'loose on the buyer's market' in a couple of weeks but very confused what's next.....

Sharp looking Donzi, and You're asking less than most Thai Generals spend on their Rolex!

All true Lars, pretty fair asking price and selling for even less....
I heard the General bought all his watches from Craigslist, so they're only made from 'Craigslist Gold' and not the real stuff....

BTW, I wouldn't have thought my boat would find its way onto this thread! Lol

Actually the bones look good.

Didn't you buy a boat that came over in a container?
