Why does it have 2 bow eyes?

Because 1 isn't enough and 3 is too many...

It's a work boat, may be the reason. Just a guess.

spoken like a true martini drinker.

Some people want one for the winch and one for tie-down, as back-up if the winch/chain bow eye fails or to adjust to their winch stand. Also may have to do with attaching an anchor or mooring line up there.

I believe for a martini drinker it works in reverse. "1 is too many and 3 is not nearly enough".

This comes up every couple weeks on our local cl. Might make a great boat for someone but I just can't figure out the HVAC vents on the sides?

That's so the structure of the boat can dry out well after a good day of fishing! Lol... Oh, you never know what people are thinking...

That old Bell Boy is likely a sealed bilge boat, so the vents are likely deck drains for rough water as they are above the water line.. Possibly would work, but if the water was that rough to need them ( water coming over the side ), than that little boat should not be out there... Really, if it can't drain fast enough and you get sideways into some rollers, it would likely sink

Love the towel rack grab bar on the passenger side dash, and the drive way reflectors in back-priceless!!. No information on the boat what so ever, no info on the motor either. All that for $1.00 , what a steal that is.

Why do some ads state the color? Does it matter? Isn't it obvious? (same with car ads)

Love the automobile seats.

and a long shaft motor on a short shaft boat.

Those vents are a real mystery. Hope they are just on for decoration, like the reflectors inside the boat.

Would have made a great AR off the Carolina coast.

"planes not included. minor smoke damage"

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

like new regal 1700 LSR

Does anyone know what "haul made for quick plane" means. Or a " brand new original regal made whole interior" from 1998 is?

I'll never comprehend the people who expect to get any interest in a $6500 boat when they can only put one weird angle picture from twenty feet on there.

"needs new carb or rebuild".... Sounds like another 'ran the last time we had it out' ad

He should ask more since it comes with a magic 3.0 or a magic GPS.

Well, who would expect a 1000' long aircraft carrier to plane? Oh wait...
