Are you seriously selling this after all the work that was done? Why ? YOU WILL PROBABLY MAKE MORE PARTING IT OUT UNFORTUNATELY

I have too much going on. One son has a 69 mustang we're restoring. About to buy a vw van for the other son. (Gonna need at least a paint job). I've got the 38 kaama to get done and I just bought a sailboat (sorry to come out of the closet on you lol) yes a sailboat in Tampa. And there's only one of me. Yes sadly it'd bring more parted out. We'll see what happens.

We're living in a crappy economy. Of course the president gets a pass from the media because of who he is. Sorry about getting political. In a perfect world the boat should be worth 50,000. Part of it is the limited audience there is for this boat. And part is the bad economy.

A sailboat?

Heath, want to pull my Scarab apart at the same time as yours Might be easier to do two at the same time. Your then be the 38' Scarab expert.

A very friendly hello to all of you

My name is Robert FRANK from Germany
I own a 89 Wellcraft 210XL since summer 2013 and i could not resist to by another Wellcraft in summer 16 ......yes we are also stupid boaters here in Germany .

I bought a Wellcraft 26 foot NOVA II with two 350 aboard .......i know engines are too small ,but it is what it is.

Pre owner tried to sell it since 1 1/2 year on EBay ,he was asking 15.000Euro .
After i visited him and we inspected the boat we met at 5000Euro.

Kind of cheap but there is a lot of work to do .....

Engines are running a not getting hot or leaking ,engine oil is clean
Port transom has freeplay ( new steering pin needed )
Exhaust system is switchable ,but the two port flaps are working only with manaul help (internal shaft corossion i guess)
STBD flaps are workin perfekt but not sealing proper ......
Cockpit is faded away due to sun..........
No persenning at all,cause the old one was only to scrap

I fear a boat this age will also have stringers and transom rott, we will see if i take her apart.

Now aftr reading this resto thread i am kind of shocked about the Ebay Auction result ....10000 USD ????
It is a shame ,so much work and tlc and only this low result !?
Heath , you have allready explained the reasons for this low result .
Maybe the one and only solution it to part out the SCARAB, but again what a shame for all your work.
