i'd be interested in shortie

One may be forsale, pricing out converting it to a single.

pm me and let me know!

That is a waste of $$$. The stringers and transom would all need to be redone. As far as what its worth?????? That depends on how much somebody wants to spend to make it nice. If you bought it for 15k, you'd be upside down by the time it was done.

As long as it is taking you to find a boat, imagine how long it will take to fix this one Just joking, I agreew with Griff, I would say $10,000 if you had the time and $$ to finish it.

Buy it and get cracking!

Buying a boat just to be one of those guys who owns a boat that doesnt run for years doesnt make sense to me.

A nice running boat is a stupid enough thing to buy, financially speaking. That boat.....

My boat blew up and I spent over 20 grand getting it back in the water and still lost almost a whole summer. But I did everything right and had the motor built by top marine guys in Canada, had the drive done by a top guy and did alot of the 'little' stuff myself.

You will spend 20-50 grand getting that boat back in top condition if you do it right.

Ahhhhh.... enough w/ your common sense already!

Storm buddy I just would hate to see another guy buy a 'project' that never gets finished.

I dont comment much or post much but I have a bit of knowledge on this subject lol.

I have seen that happen alot on these boards. Guy buys boat...all pumped for what he is going to 'do'....realizes what he got himself into...boat is for sale 9 months later.

Buying the boat is the cheap and easy part. Getting it running and then KEEPING it running is the tough part.

How many times have we heard of a guy on these boards buying some boat and then blowing it up the FIRST time out and then having BS problems with engines, gremlins and all the rest and losing time and money and hair.

I would just hate to see that happen to SLP.

My advice to him is what it has always been. Buy a boat that is nice, runs, leaks down well and has good history. Have 20k tucked away for when the grenade detonates. Rinse...Repeat.

I nearly bought a 28 apache that had sunk. The owner knew but never disclosed. I got it surveyed and voila. Saved myself alot of money and heartache. Doubled my budget and bought F1-71 which is one of the better single engine pantera's. Drove to Ohio 3 times. Met the owner, engine builder Tony Bischoff who did a leakdown test with me in the bilge with him and got it surveyed.

Yep. So you will take what for yours? lol. I got a few more feelers out for some other boats. As it stands the owner of the TN 28 has not yet called back after i spoke with him the fist time. He was on the fence about selling when we first spoke. So we will see.

YES i love your boat AR, best looking one ever.
