Not boat related, but I got a kick out of it.

1) How do you measure 89% of tread?
2) That is a real treat

He couldn't have hit them with a hose first? they look like they have been sitting in that filthy shop for a year before he got the trash off the top to try and sell them. :facepalm:

EDIT: I will take the Porsche rims off the 2nd set though

Do you guys think this one is priced as high as I do? I mean I get it, its a nice old boat. But I think that Price is a bit on high side for that "old" of boat.

The thing you have to remember is that a boat with a solid transom, stringers, floor, and dry foam "IS" worth good money. $3200 for that boat if it is in as good of shape as advertised is a fair price. I see no reason why a garage kept boat wouldn't last 40 years and still be in good shape. Sometimes keeping a boat under a tarp is the worst thing for it because any moisture get's trapped under the tarp.

Knock off a zero and you have a decent donor boat

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

yea 3200 for that glastron, assuming the claims are true in the ad, seems worth it to me as well.

Wow. Talk about out of touch with reality.
Even if in his mind he is willing to accept a lot less, he's doing himself a great disservice by shooting for the moon with that price. No one wants to call and make a legit, fair offer only to get called a lowballer just because the seller more than doubled what would be a reasonable asking price. A brand new boat with a real 4 stroke motor would only cost a bit more than that.

As seller claims in the ad it needs a little interior work, at $4500 for a 27 year old fiberglass boat, it should be immaculate, fiberglass i/o are a dime a dozen in these parts.

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

I Googled bohemia top and only this thread and the CL ad comes up. The guy doesn't have a pic. Am I missing something? I'm not giving up, then I'm looking for a Be Mi top. I want something different to keep the sun off my bald head. :lol:

Ga's gonna be bringing sexy back to boating this summer:

Ya just gotta make one minor little modification, and it doesn't look nearly as ridiculous or crazy:

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

I thought about emailing the seller but as the old saying goes ignorance is bliss, and he's in heaven.

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

This one actually isn't to bad the hull looks good the trailer looks good, to bad the motor went swimming.

Ski Boat

Kind of makes you wonder what kind of shape the transom is in though. Only $895 and I do respect the seller for being honest.

It's one of those "tri haul" boats as well.

Why is the word "hull" so hard for some people. I don't think a lot of people don't know what a "hull" is.

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

That is the worst $4K paint job I've ever seen. It is all orange peel! And those custom wheels he had made. I better sell the ones on my truck, which are identical except I have black where he has blue. WIMUSKY has the same wheels on his rod. And we both have all the wheel studs, unlike this guy. The seller must be related to the Christmas Goose. :facepalm:

He may also be related to this seller - Aristocraft 19 classic showboat

Of course the paint has orange peel, it's in Florida!
