I am sure that statement has to do with where he lives and who might be his cutomers( showing up at his door) more than he will report the Craigslist ads themselves to those organizations!

I live within a few miles of that guy and I will guarantee you that neither the FBI or INS are going to get excited about someone trying to scam a guy out of a hundred dollar, clawfoot table. Besides that, most of the people here in southern New Mexico that the INS would be interested in wouldn't be able to read the ad anyhow, unless it was written in Spanish.

This guy wants to swap a Bayliner for a piece of real estate?
I also never thought of a Bayliner Capri as a 'Speedboat'.

I have an 18' Bayliner Capri 185. Looks and runs great.
I'm looking to trade it for a fixer-upper rental property.

Location: NJ
it's NOT ok to contact this poster with services or other commercial interests

Hey, I used to live in Jersey. Someone might get a great deal, I have not been to Newark in a while but from what I remember most properties would be worth far less than the Capri Speedboat LoL ::facepalm::D:eek::D:p

Re: Funny "TLC needed" boat ads on Craigslist.

i got lucky on my CL find an ol boy here in Indiana retired from the Starcraft plant and tinkers with rebuilding old stars and makes them shine again, I found his add for a "16 ft ss starcraft 1000 bucks with 30 hp motor needs paint and thats about it " called him and found out he was an old starcraft worker and had to go see it and well I came home with it lol he had redone all the wood including transom ,rhinolined the hull on the inside when it was striped, checked every rivit and replaced any loose ones and had new carpet in it also, had to replace the carpet as it was a junk type of rubberback outdoor stuff and I wanted alum, diamond plate in it for fishing but all in all a great deal.. few and far between finding them.

I'm gonna take a wild shot and say the photoshopped lid?

Do you mean that he is not including the bungee cords to attach it to the transom? Or what looks like a chunk broken out from the front of the upper exhaust housing?

Aside of looking goofy, that boat would be less than fast with twice that power too :facepalm:
