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

here's one I came across today

Welcraft 19 ft boat

So it's missing some rail and the seats fell over. Yeah looks like he sold off the foot but heck the motor is locked up anyway.
And no flat tires either.

At least they will take offers.
Is it offers on how much someone will charge him to take it to the dump for him?

This Vessel floated prior to Hurricane Sandy.

Floated?!?........ :laugh:

But sank during Sandy. And well taken care of since. :facepalm: I see cutting torches in her future.

Very nice hull! I don't need to tell myself it probably needs a full restore as it is too far away to consider.

I may go take a look at it tomorrow.. it's only 15 mins away.. BUT.. going to leave my cash at home. Glasply's are solid boats if taken care of somewhat.

Yeah, what's not to love:

Trailer is shot and best to bring a trailer and roll the whole thing on your trailer, or you can take a chance and tow this one?? Not advisable tho.
Ya think:

Look at the pics then Email me or call me if you are seriously interested.
I won't waste your time, if you won't waste mine..... $2450 sounds PLENTY high, regardless of the 5.7L.....

No scammers allowed
Sure, there's plenty of honor among scammers, that's why they're, well, you know: Scammers. I'm sure this statement will keep them from responding.

On second thought, that warning might actually INCREASE the amount of fake traffic his ad will generate............
Where's Bill Engvale, this guy needs a sign.

Chupacabras is not of particular concern to most boaters...Chupacaguas is the danger...It will steal your beer[video]http://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=%22chupacaguas%22&FORM=HDRSC3#view=detail&mid=4BC063EDAD819F14E47C4BC063EDAD819F14E47C[/video]

Um, I think at $1500 starting bid, and buy it now for $3,000.. he's aiming way to high. I'm a huge SeaSwirl fan of the 89 through 93's, but when they are this far gone....

1989 Seaswirl CUDDY Price REDUCED No Reserve | eBay
It even has an inboard engine and a propeller engine. The guy says he paid $10k for it 5 years ago and put $3k into it. He is either lying or got robbed.

In perfect showroom condition 5 yrs ago, that SeaSwirl wasn't worth $10K.. I couldn't see where some one could (or would) put $3k more into it. People that lie that obvious, wouldn't buy a thing from them. I have that same boat, but in red and burgundy, same yr in VERY good condition.. I would say top $$ for it would be about $5k.. maybe on a good summer day a little more.
