Poor guy, someone should buy this boat. Can't even afford anymore gas to make sure it runs. I would trust him. Sounds like a great boat for Crocodile Dundee! 22.2 ft. SPORTCRAFT

Check the trailer -- looks like it will never track correct, may take 2 or 3 lanes if it ever moves. At $495 he may be 1500 too high!

Looking at the first picture I don't see any tires. Appears to be bare rims with the trailer held up by a concrete block. At $495 the guy is about $1000 too high.

A Big one and a good one...

1970 Mercruiser Lower Unit

1970 Mercruiser Lower Unit. 140 HP COMPLETE. This is the Big one and the good one. $500.00 216-xxx-xxxx

I didn't know they made a bigger and gooder one 40 years ago. I also didn't know that the outdrive had 140 horsepower. That really must be a big arse outdrive. But will it perform better than my smaller and junkier Alpha 1? :rolleyes:

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

A buddy of mine had that same model boat brand new, but with a big block, it needed every last bit of power the worked up big block made, I think top speed on his was about 90mph in light chop. I would think that its pretty under powered with that small block in it if its speed your after.
With that said, which of those toys do you think is the most expensive?

All in all that's probably not a bad deal if someone is into that type of boat and is looking for a project.

Most expensive is the one between the boat and bike... no question!
