43ZR up for sale that jumped 40' wave

Anyone know the story behind this (damage, injuries, etc.)? I saw that the boat is up for sale with no power. Definitely one of the biggest jumps I've seen from a boat of that size.

I believe the boat was cracked in half - the consensus was a total loss, but apparently has been somewhat repaired.

Figure in the cost of the repower/re-rig and the hull really has no value. That history will haunt this boat forever.

"somewhat repaired"

How exactly does that work on catastrophic damage? Only use it as a lake boat? LOL

I'll pass. I hope they disclose the extent of the precious damage.

By "somewhat repaired" I was referring to the fact that the boat has not been re-rigged.

Maybe "somewhat repaired" means motors and drives removed lol

There are some good photos of the damage if you do a search for them, looks totaled. Can't imagine its anything but a lawn ornament now. Been listed on and off for a few years.
