9.9 johnson outboard motor

Not a fixer, but funny anyways. Very basic ad so I emailed him and asked 3 questions - age, if it was hi thrust, and asked for pics. His responses "tomant questions no sale" and "I will not sell to u". Hilarious how some sellers hope to sell something when 3 questions is too many? I wonder what he would do if a dozen people asked him for info... ha! :)
maybe his wife is making him sell, but he wants to keep:lol:

hmm, I would think it's not a bad deal. The trailer would be worth $700 and the boat looks ok.

14' Fiberglass plus....

This ad is awesome!!!

"Nice little 73 Playmate 14' fiberglass hull, trailer, trolling motor and 40hp Evinrude motor up for grabs.

It is a bit of a project but in 8-12 hours and not alot $ you will have a fine little watercraft.

Hull is a shallow draft tri, wide and stable. The hull and transome are sound. The firberglass floor is a bit soft in spots but the stringers are solid so with a couple sheets of plywood and some carpet you are good to go.

Trailer needs a little tlc but is viable.

Trolling motor is a Motor Guide Brute 12/24v 41 lb thrust.

The 40 hp Evinrude Norseman ran well when it was derigged, not sure of the model year. It has been laying where you see it for the last 2 years but I'm sure it would not take much to make it healthy again. It has pull start and electronic start. Comes with the control box but the control cables will need to be replaced.

Misc parts pieces anchors etc included..

Going "as is" lock stock and barrel to the first person with $450 cash. Clear titles. "

Always makes it kind of worrisome when the ancient outboard is laying on the ground.

Wonder how he is so sure the stringers are OK. The floor is rotten and it has been sitting outside for years storing garbage.

BOAT AND TRAILER "needs restoration" for $700??? LOL.....

That's a Glaspar G-3. You couldn't price that much better to make a speed junky & boat nut grab it & run.

Envision that little 13' 6" ( I think, it might be closer to 13' even) w/ a HUGE gleaming black Merc tower of power (135hp) SCREAMING by just before it starts to chinewalk. It's crazy what those guys will run on that little boat.
