This guy wandered into Home Depot, and looked for the "Deck" section when he needed to replace his deck...

I picked up a Bluefin Specture this spring. its a 17 ft bass type boat and the floor was done in tongue n groove oak flooring!!!!!!!!! even though it was weather and had an inch of moss, it was still pretty solid!!..of course its all gone now!!

Personal speedboat. Custom made, one of a kind. You will never find another boat like this anywhere. 20hp electric start; custom fuel system; throttle controls, teleflex steering, adjustable seat; roll bar. Comes with custom made trailer and all new wheel bearings, teflon runners. It's sleek. It's fast. It's been a long time project of mine. I'm about to start body filling and painting it. The wife wants breast implants though, so I'm taking one for the team.
$3300
Negotiable

"[FONT=&quot]Boat is in great running condition" (Looks like it with the motor laying on the floor!!)
"has new Chrysler 75 horse triple stacked engine which moves along at about 40 mph" (maybe being towed behind a truck)[/FONT]


new chrysler 75 hp motor even though the pics show an old Johnson 100 :facepalm:

I don't see a $10,000 dollar boat motor. But what do I know. :noidea:

After I reading it again he's giving up the slip it's in too and says it's paid for the season so maybe he's giving up the rights to the slip in the future as well. The one lake I used to frequent had a long waiting list for slips and some people sold them for big $, maybe that's the case.

This is a very rare personal watercraft from Australia. Designed in the 1980's. It is a fiberglass boat designed for adventure seekers, and adrenaline junkies alike. Throttle cable is routed to the riders right hand, and steering is done by swaying the body left or right to the desired direction of travel.

Only used in the water once, as I don't have an incredible amount of free time. nor a decent motor to use. Amazing condition given its age. Suits a 5-10HP motor. Includes brand new rubber o-rings to attach the top and bottom together.


Here is a video of one of these watercraft in action (NOT MY VIDEO, USED AS A PRODUCT EXAMPLE ONLY).

Motor not included. Black piece seen in 2nd picture is designed to vortex the water through the prop blades, and straight out the back, and doubles as protection to the fiberglass hull.

Item is located up on Lake Simcoe in prime cottage country.
