If I'm not mistaken, that boat was @ TNT in Miami forever.

Yes, I remeber looking at that thinking what was wrong with it, But I see it needs 10 K in the back end so it most likley needs more ?

Boat is from New Hampshire it has been for sale a long time up at lake Winnipisakee and was brought tp FL last fall.
They were asking 45k and it did not sell at that.

I THINK THE GUY WAS AN OS MEMBER, I THINK HE WAS LOSING HIS SHIRT AND JUST WANTED WHAT HE OWED ON THE BOAT. I CANT REMEMBER HIS NAME.....

Just goes to show ALWAYS get a survey done on your boat!!!!!

That boat was at TNT in Feb, 2001 and still on their website last year.

Transom and Stringers? 10K is enough for a bandaid. There is only one way to really fix stringers and that is replace them which means gutting the boat and splitting the deck. I went as far as gutting a donzi but should have split the deck and replaced the whole system bulkheads and all, after 200lbs of glass and cloth, doubling the stringers and bulkheads, it still flexed and caused cracks up and down the lift strakes. I sold it and never looked back. The Transom is another story.

I'm with you, 10 k for stringers transom AND gimballs??

This sounds like H2O damage that is exensive. That thing aint worth over 16k.

Cafe's of that vintage are bringing only 45-k unrestored and 55 k restored at best.

Better yet, skip it.

Look at the one rpm has on the "boats for sale" section...asking $45,000 but taking offers, needs a home.
