A grand is a lot of money for an "old junk boat"

Do people really expect to sell things when they give a 3 word description, offer no pictures, and are asking that much money?

Bass Boat (Row type Small for pickup truck or pond) - $450 (albany area ny)
Date: 2012-04-12, 11:18AM EDT

This is a Nice Fiberglass Row Boat Bass boat..
It is really comfortable..I paid more like 600 for it..(used) but my 9 yr old would rather play video games...
It is light enough to put in the back of a truck...or drag to the pond or river for the day...It IS great quality...and would easily take up to a 10 horse or bigger motor...
TRUST me this is a bargain (Editorial: :D)...First cash...518 XXX-XXXX

Right, then, I would not feel too comfortable filling my pickup truck bed with water to put this boat in it. :)

Or did he mean bill the boat up with water and put a pond in your truck bed?

Wait! I'm confused again, does it "run" or does it "sit"? :confused:

No wonder it needs a water pump if he has been running it the way it sits.

It should get it's own Ebay catagory: DIY boating

Heavy emphasis on the DIY part:eek:

oops will probably be along shortly to let us know it's a 2 maybe 3 long weekend project & it be back on the water:facepalm:

mad props oops, mad props!

If anybody had the skills to get it back from the Jas treatment someone forced on her, I suspect it'd be you. Not just skills, gots ta have heart & desire too... So yep, that's got you written all over it!

Gonna need a bigger hole though. You'll never get an outboard through that little one...
