lol

I have to admit the idea is funny, but the boat is run down, pontoon's are a very old style, and the engines look sad.

nobody out there would buy the boat because the boat is "famous" (I see a lake joke).

I think they would be lucky to see 2k out of that, and that's only because of the engines.

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

A condensed version of the boats I personally have viewed in my recent boat shopping endeavors- Boat is marginally acceptable as a floating vessel. Has a homebuilt engine half-arse screwed to the rearmost area of the unit. The lights are often non operational but a safety inspection by the water patrol will be no worries. Carpet could stand replacing, but is the only remaining "floor" surface in a large portion of the deck. Trailer will need melted in an electric arc furnace and drawn into bars..at which point it could be made into a newly crafted trailer. I wont hesitate to provide a full record of repairs which I myself have done whilst blindingly intoxicated and tweaked on bath salts. Thanks for looking.

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

Only thing better then a good friend w/ a boat is a brother who has a boat:D Oh wait, no it's worse if your the brother that has the boat....

I had a good friend who split a nice boat 3 ways w/ 2 of his boating friends. Worse mistake he ever made. Including a 5yr marriage that ended in a divorce that was U-G-L-Y...... He & 1 guy carried the bulk of the $ & work. Other guy didn't even take his garbage off the boat, after using it: boat cover?? what boat cover?? hmm, pretty sure it had gas when we left, don't know why it's empty now??:confused::mad: Horses arse.........

Carp, now I'm the friend w/ a boat(s):facepalm: Where are all those people I helped w/ theirs, now?
