Sounds like he was already taken to the cleaners.

"last time I used it some years ago I could not get it running"

Nice twist on the old "ran last time I used it" line...:cool:

1984 Kawasaki X2 with a 18 horse outboard johnson. Sumbeech will fly. Nicknamed the honey hauler for a good reason. Float up to the beach on this bad boy and the hoes will flock. Happens to me every year. Every summer it's the same old thing, give me a ride they ask.. "I'll take my bikini top off they say, but it doesn't end there." Will this 1984 saki powered by a 18hp two stroke johnson you'll feel like breaking bad mixing the oil and gasoline. Plus that extra seat and power means you can load this baby up with all the biggest beach whales... (Trust me, I know.)

This wave slammer hauls!! If the girl doesn't take her top off, thats ok cause the wind will blow it off for sure. 40 year old virgin? Girlfriend of wife cut you off at home? No problem. This is the ship for you. Built in 1984 the engineers had poon magnet clearly on the buildsheet. This aint no fishin boat but it's been hauling pink-snapper for years. This is a bachelors dream right here and you wont find a better price for this mini-yacht - one easy payment of $650. I hate to see her go but it's time to let some other guy take this gem down to tuna town.

This boat will make her wet guys...

2014 'drill-kota' included - hand crafted by yours truly. (Made in America)

Only thing it needs is 1 new piston.

[FONT=Bitstream Vera Serif, Times New Roman, serif]Since I speak craigslistian, Let's break down what this ad is really saying:

"Also low hours for the year." Translation - lotta hours, I'm not going to tell you how many
[/FONT]
[FONT=Bitstream Vera Serif, Times New Roman, serif]"Only thing ski needs is 1 new piston (few hundred $'s in parts)" He left out the the few hundred dollars in labor, not to mention what else might be wrong but you can't test because it doesn't run.[/FONT]
[FONT=Bitstream Vera Serif, Times New Roman, serif]"Cylinder is already off, so half the work is already done." Translation - you get a box of parts with and get to hope and pray they're all there
"I would love to keep it and fix, bcuz of how good of shape its in, but I already have 2 other skis." Translation - it's gonna take a lot of time and money to get this thing back on the water, then the other piston or bottom end will most likely blow, so I just bought another ski.
