RRRUUUNNNN from this one it may explode at any second.
1978 open bowel boat Its your classic open bowel boat.

From The CL ad: 1978 open bowel boat with 70hp evenrough motor also includes 1 wakeboard and 1 tube asking $1800 obo

An open bowel boat with an evenrough motor! That must be quite a rig.

Open Bowel may be a new low, but I think I like the ole evenrough even better. Awesome :D

I wonder how hard it is to source TP for the hull, and parts for the Evenrough

"Make your own 4 stroke outboard - $40"
"Buy either my 10hp or 15hp evinrude lower ends for $40ea

Buy a new 5hp 4 stroke engine from harbor freight -

Marry them, and off to the calif restricted lakes --"

Seems like a good idea.
Buy a lower unit, graft on a 5 hp vertical shaft lawn mower engine, zip tie it to the back of your boat and there should be no problem getting that ghetto rig stickered for use on Lake Tahoe.

The hand rails look to be old galvanized pipe? trailer is worth something, but the boat, not so much.

so many levels of wrong on that boat.. I'll take the trailer and boat, but I won't pay anything for them.

You never know, perhaps someone has a 1972 Fiberwhatever boat that's missing a bow rail and some of those fancy looking windshield/windows and trim, and this would make his boat whole. Just saying.

Try this one out. This is a quote from ad.

"Early 80's Larson 17' fiberglass tri-hull boat. 125 horsepower mercury outboard engine. Split window/open bow. Motor runs great, transom has 2 cracks where motor mounts. About 2-4 inches only. Needs fiberglass patch/repair. Titled trailer. Great for fish and ski"

I love the part about "Needs fiberglass patch/repair" Do Ya Think!!!

Original ad link.
