Supposing its only the transom , no stringer problems.. Freshwater boat ..Definately needs gimbals too .. Whats it worth ??
Any other project cigs out there ?

Any word on this boat? Has anyone recently taken a peek at it? If someone was serious about it, I'd help them sort the rot out, gratous of course.
I love these projects that much...

I checked it out ..stringers dont sound wet ..Transom is like a sponge
Gimbals are real loose.. Supposedly the motors are strong ..420's , good engines to build on ..
Interior isnt that bad but im sure it will start to come apart with use as its been sitting long enough to have weeds growing out of the shmegg caught in the rubrail .. All the gauge faces are UV'd ..junk
Fiberglass work needed all over then probably a paint job.
I realy want to give this thing a good home but I just cant see 25K it needs too much

bryanspeedracer

Ahhh, a REAL project.

I will never understand why people hang on to these things like grim death is hunting them down. Who tells these people, "Yeah it will sell NEXT year". Like it's gonna be worth more or somethin.
Please, someone offer this dude 10k and go from there.

Hell Ill go over and wash the thing for free .. Its making me ill to see it so neglected..
He wont budge on 25K
Good luck too him !

Too bad. The thing will just rot away until the remaining "good" stuff is no longer good.
Get to be friends with him, then get him drunk or a hooker (or both...).
