Gentlemen in my marina has a 1990 Carver 30' Santego he is trying to sell for $11000. The boat is immaculate inside and out having been shrink wrapped and dry stored since 2006. Here is the problem. I looked at the boat yesterday and it does not run. It has twin merc 5.7l that were replaced in 2002 and shown on his 2006 survey to be in perfect working order but having been started in 6 years. The boat was winterized and fuel drained before he stored it but now that all the fluids and everything have been put back it will not even try to start (with fresh fuel). I loooooooove these boats and their layout. What do you guys think? Are Santego's good boats? Is this price fair for it even though it doesn't run? He has it listed for 15000 the 11000 is a friend price or so he says. The survey on her was an A+ when she was stored.
I just see an easy grand to get it rolling (floating) again
