For only $150, you get this beauty, described by the owner:
This boat is not running. We basically just want it off our property. So, you will need to remove it and the tires on the trailer are flat.

Still a stern NO!
And I didn't even have to consult the Admiral's little voice in my head:

I scored this "awesome" out of a possible ten. I thought it was a joke - then realized we're talking about folks from one of my favorite passages of Fox Island here. They march to a different Wurlitzer...just because they can.

I can't help but to come up with an entire back-story here.

I've got to think that that just launched itself to the top of the most ridiculous ads.

Hmm, no change in asking price after 30days on CL... If the 'boat' & ad weren't evidence enough, the seller is clearly still not getting it.

FJ, friends know when to say NO! Please direct all pending purchase thoughts & comments to your Admiral. In this case, there needs to be someone saying:

Are we clear?

Your Admiral can thank mine.... She's an experienced naysayer. I, however, suffer from chronic, persistent & frequent Spousal Deafness.....

Um, is the Admiral home?

Mine is calling to walk her thru the CL filter that can easily be added to most home computers to restrict access....

Kind of a boat junkie widow's adult content filter.........

BTW: I think that's a mobile app CL ad. It still gives you a chance to proof & change the ad text....

If the Wellcraft is THE boat, well, that doesn't seem too bad, if you NO the KNEW engine is in A1 shape :facepalm:

1995 Four Winns 258 Vista with new trailer - $13855 (Poughkeepsie)
The Boat is in overall good shape except for engine damage (which happened last season). I don't have the time to invest in engine (5.8 Litre "Cobra") repair or replacement, and I don't want to let it sit. The trailer was bought in 2009 and has about 40 miles on it! Comes with everything needed to get boating. A perfect winter project for a mechanic...

Only a bad motor huh? Only $14 grand huh? only stupid huh???

Insanity at its finest. And not only is it a bad motor, it's a FORD engine, with an obsolete drive! Someone in Poughkeepsie is smoking magic dust! ;)
