I hear all that to and know it to be fact. I love the boat and hate to sell it. However I have heard many people say that the name and reputation of the boats have been tainted by the actions and things of past owners. You can sell a fountain that is half the boat for twice the money twice as fast. Unfortunately it has nothing to do with the boat.if I was gonna keep a boat it would be this one for sure

Boat was originally from south Florida and had hp500's, then made it's way to New Orleans. After it sank in the Destin marina the second owners sold it to the guy who Lake pirate1 got it from.

And understand I have no issue with you being honest with possible buyers out there if it is true. That is what sites like this are good for. Information of all types and help.

Did it actually? I would actually like to know for sure myself. In the original classifieds thread before I bought the boat someone asked this question but no one could answer it. Then I asked Lane the previous owner and he said not that he knew of. Then a guy told me on the phone it got washed over the back on a beach. After trying to research on that I was told that wasn't true, so who knows. If that rumor or truth maybe is out there then maybe people are scared of it I don't know. All I know is that's why I had it surveyed originally because I heard that. Of the three surveys I had done none found any evidence of it, so i assumed they were rumors and went by what the surveyors said. Maybe I bought a boat that went under at some time? All I know is I don't know for sure and it doesn't show any signs or it didn't effect it. All I can say is I put it out for a great price because I need to free up money. If someone is interested they need to come see it in person and have it surveyed their self.

yes sandpiper condos in destin that's the name of the condos ,,,,,
also I know the owner that bought it and did the resto
and they did an excellent job of replacing everything with new interior interior except
the front cabin,
it is a lot of boat for the price,and well worth it,,,
that was in 98 and lots of yrs have passed if it was to have any issues from that incident
would have showed many yrs ago

Well there you have it folks all the history back almost 20 years I guess. Good bad and indifferent unless we find out it flew off the trailer at 100mph. Sounds about the same as the guy told me on the phone so I'll figure that's what happened. No matter boat is solid and a nice piece. My family has enjoyed the hell out of it. If someone wants a good boat at a more than fair price COOL buy it. If not that's cool too we will still enjoy it. Thanks to all the people who have showed interest in the boat. It'll make someone a good boat.
