    Hi there! I just purchased this water monster for dirt cheap (rightfully so). I'm just so excited. It's in a slip in Maryland right by my home and I'm able to work on it at the marina. Some pictures to make you jealous. And with that said, I mean to say that you can actually feel sorry for...

    Almost bought this one first for $1,000: Boat was in the water in 20. I believe it needs a new throttle cable. Motor turns over, doesn't start. Inboard. Titles for boat and trailer. 1000 obo as is or trade.

    If you knew me, you would not be surprised that I'm still interested. I like a challenge but even more so I like to make poor choices. With that being said, I'm not convinced she's mine yet. I do know the costs involved with only storing her and paying for a slip at a local marina, I'm...

    crazy and retired do not go hand in hand, usually. And I'm far from retirement (47) but super close to crazy as detailed throughout this thread.
