Two things: one, why is it important to note how much money he had in his wallet or his short when found?
Second, can you at least TRY to cover up you minimalist repair job by matching the paint. They painted all repair area 'obvious' green. Maybe a totally new paint job or match the old. It's creepy when you look at the wreck photos and recent.

My god did they do a ****ty job with the 'cover up' paint! UGLY!!!
At least it still has the one bone fish!
If I bought that boat, I'd completely repaint it. Not only to get rid of that terrible paint job, but to help erase the bad history as well.

Cash Bar, thanku for posting that 2004 article... i wasn't aware of the fatal crash,, so I wanted to read the story... Very sad, for sure..... Yah, I wouldn't want any part of a boat that took a human life..... no way...
I have a question,,, The ad says nothing about the 36 being involved in a fatal accident and that it was badly damaged.... Do they legally have to disclose this information to anyone interested in buying it?..... like a salvage title on a car/truck?...

I attempted contact with the seller last year when they had it on ebay. They never responded. I did bid on the boat, but only low ball "safe" offers, hoping they would respond to my questions regarding the damage, before I would bid higher. Eventually, after emailing many times regarding the boats history, they blocked me from bidding. I think they would have better luck selling the boat if they were honest and up-front regarding the boats history????

(Of course, it isn't in good shape - I have seen it up close as recently as the weekend before last. If I pass up the boat, it is out of good sense. Just pointing out what a doofus you are.)

I looked at the boat up close twice not long before the 200. Def needs work. I wasn't aware of the accident at the time I looked at it but did notice that it had some extensive work done to the sponson along with bottom repairs. If it was checked out by a reputable individual and he ok'd it/said it could be repaired, why wouldn't someone buy it at the right price???? the boat didn't cause the accident, nor the alcohol, inexperience did IMO.
