Well not technically a TLC needed but more of a "wow holy crap overpriced"

LOL, did this guy say he's "just selling because he was someone to pay for him to move" ??? LOL

Also, what more could you ask for in a deal like this? Maybe a fish finder, marine radio, Stereo, SERVICE RECORDS, I don't know.

He says, ? If you/re looking for something free go to welfare." I just sent him an email message,

"If you/re looking for someone to pay for your move, go to welfare yourself."

These guys are something else? Are these boats that valueable?

There IS a member who posted over in the Bayliner section looking for glass for a 19' Capri. This could be a lucky find for him!

Yes, that member would be me. hehe. I just sent him an email asking if he would part it out.

Hi,
I am looking for a window for my boat. Are you willing to sell parts off this boat? My phone number is xxxxxxxxxx.
No engine, no title, bad interior, bad trailer? Why was the engine removed? Nobody is going to buy this boat with all those problems. Let me know.
Thanks,
Arthur.

Maybe the guy that sold it to him in the first place told him it was 100 HP. If that was 100 HP rather than 10 you wouldn't be able to hold on to the tiller anyway. You would have a hand clamped on each of the gunnels and your head down praying.

I bet he added that welfare bit because I emailed him and told it was ridiculously overpriced. He wrote back and said "if you can't afford it, don't buy it. I already have a deposit on it". BS, since he's since dropped his price from 2800 to 2100!!!

Ez, you should give him some more education (or maybe you alrady covered this with him), that Honda "100" he has listed as 100hp, wow, the "100" is the model number, it is a 10hp engine with tiller, my goodness what a maroon :facepalm:

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

I'm not too sure what to say about this one, so here's the ad.

"Ok guys I need to sell this quick! For 400 u can scrap the trailer for that much!!! We have a 1967 Glastron pleasure boat with a 35hp Mercury outboard. The engine cranks real nice but never got it to start, pretty sure it's just the magneto. Control box and cables work fine, hull is solid, not a single leak. This is a project so it needs a few things, like a floor. But this thing is solid, it has been in a garage for years and not subject to the elements, the engine and trailer are worth what I'm asking. Have CLEAN TITLE on both boat and trailer in hand. Need to pay some bills guys, just dropped the price, first $400 takes it! Only serious please call or text Chris"

Here's a unique one. I'm not sure "catamaran" adequately describes it...

This is why drugs are bad.

mkay.


lol, this reminds me of this one house I looked at while shopping for a home...

This one home really stood out, in the living room going into the kitchen someone painted the walls so it looked like the paint was peeling off and showing brick (walls were actually drywall and 2x4s) looked good, but it also made the house look trashy...

Joking with my agent I said Meth... he laughed, I laughed...
then we went into the bathroom and he paused and showed me the chem burn marks on the ceiling, they were cooking meth in that house...

that little "catamaran" is an example of way to much "motivation" much like the paint on that wall... IMO ;)
