There was more than a puddle. I went in the cuddy and opened one of the hatches (there is no step down in the cuddy of this boat) its all the same height as the floor in the cockpit and the water was all the way up to the floor with mold and algae growing ALOT in it. The drains back to the bilge were plugged apparently, and had been that way for quite a while. This boat has sat outside uncovered for a long time. It was in an impound lot for quite a few years before the current owner bought it. It was apparently a "work boat" in its past life.

I never said it was a good deal; I just said it wasn't junk. Sorry I'm picking on you guys, but you haven't really given any definitive reasons as to why the motors are junk or the hull is wet. It sounds like you saw a puddle in the bilge with some leaves, and a little rust on the motor and you rendered the entire boat junk. THen you go off on the trailer not having a title as if its uncommon, its not.

You should really just buy this POS so you can try to prove everybody wrong then.

If you are lucky, you might break even on the parts after having them for sale for a year. That boat is not worth the time or $$ to fix.

You need to quit advertising your boat and just hang on to it for a few months.

I think you got that backwards. Its ok for the GF to know about everything. Its after you pull the marriage trigger that you wouldn't want her to know about a race boat.
