You itchy types need to hurry and catch this one before it swims away on it 's own.

Nothing I'd take on the ocean where I boat/fish but would be a fun project for someone that plays on a lake.

Hey, don't be dissing boats with tail fins. Clean that up, tow it behind a '57 Chevy Station Wagon, you'd be stylin'.

'57 Chevy wagon would make a nice TV for the Finned Wonder, but Christine is perfect, from the fins to the colors. :)

Can be seen at little Caesars pizza parking lot in PostFalls.

Too bad she's not at a Domino's - She would be in your driveway in 30 minutes or less. :D

Even the trailer is junk. They should have simply scrapped it and saved looking like idiots.

Copart is just an auction company. Like ebay. They dont own the items for sale. I have seen burnt car frames bring 500 bucks.

2 weeks ago I bought a running goldwing 1100 for 35 bucks. Last week i bought a lot of 5 motorcycles for 50.. i have sold one part on ebay for 3 times what i piad for all of them..

So even the junk has value ;)

And i have bought boats that look that bad. They part out and sheet aluminum is wortth 50-75 cents a pound. I look at that boat and still see dollar signs.

Must have been rolled running down the highway doing about 75 mph, I have never seen a worse condition boat and outboard.

Yeah...with all of the attention this particular thread gets, I knew it was only a matter of time before folks started putting up deliberately ridiculous ads that appear legit until the last sentence is read; or in this case, the picture tells the whole story. Clearly, this is an ad that is aimed right at us here on iboats. That doesn't make it funny, and shouldn't be posted. Before you know it, we will have a bunch of chuckleheads putting up fake CL ads just to get on this thread. Waste of time.

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

Now here is a real gem...and for only $750.

Evinrude 75 Horse.

Gee whiz, just lay it on the ground and let it get rained and snowed on. That will increase its resale value for sure! :facepalm:



Now THIS is a perfect case of someone not having the slightest clue about the value of an object. In fact, I would wager that the person who listed this boat thinks he could sell his own excrement for $20.

sea ray

No engine, no outdrive, no trailer, no interior and probably no title. :facepalm:

The snow and weeds are free! :lol:

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

Two things I like about this one. The classic photo from 2 miles away that tells us almost nothing. And this statement where he offers to commit a crime: (after saying it does not have a title)

"I have a title from a late 70s boat that I parted out will give that to you if you want it."

24ft boat and Trailer Needs tlc CHEAP!!!

Boat has been sitting for 6 years has a Chevy 350 Mercruiser in it but my guess is shot( Maybe) The Trailer could use new tires they hold air just two of the tires are just old. The other two are newer GM donut spares.

Boat pulls fine and tires are fine for a haul home just it will need tires in the future.


Boat but has no title boat was Abandoned had no trailer I got boat and put this Trailer under it. Looking for something with a plow its just for driveway so if its a non steetable plow truck that's ok.I am just East of the cities 28 mi. in Glenwood city just west of Baldwin Wisconsin. Or cash is king only 595.00 cash only trailer is worth more then that

Boat is very Solid .I have a title from a late 70s boat that I parted out will give that to you if you want it. Otherwise it is what it is.

My cell has a TN 615 area code Just have not changed it to WI I can't because of work for now Just a fyi .

Text me anytime Please call after 4pm 615-756-5341 Thanks

Really like reading how much people think scrap is worth because it is in their yard.

Yeah I'm thinking the far away pic was so someone in law enforcement doesn't get the hull reg number off CL and checks it for stolen.

Check this one out:

3 Free boats with clear title , good and solid

Boats are "good and solid" but oh hey a 3'x4' section on the transom has just been cut out...:facepalm:

That is funny, I love the statement "it is great for fishing and cruising the water , or just for making a dollar". Like all it is going to take to get these going is maybe a little Bondo so that you just have to fix all 3 , sell 2, and you will make some money in the process. That is some who clearly knows he is trying to get someone to come pick up his trash for free, or at least he wants to get paid to deliver it!
