Yes he was, it should have been evident from GA's post, right after mine:

Here's the ad: http://dallas.craigslist.org/mdf/boa/4701109437.html

Yeah, living in a rental and trying to rehab a boat in the driveway can be tough........................

It's been a while since I checked out this topic. You guys are working hard to keep me out. :lol: Floating picnic tables, Seal Team 5 3/4 assault craft and a delivered Sea Sprite with a head no Admiral would use - No Captain either.

JB - It's a good thing you linked the Dallas Glastron. I was about to mistakenly remind Jonvee about Rule 8. :facepalm: Sorry JV.

I think this might be better for a bonfire than doing the work.

No doubt! Guaranteed, that decomposing hulk's service days are long behind her.

balance a picnic table just right as outriggers like those hawaiian canoes and you're good to go.

I think those Skipjacks (the shark mouth) have a following of rebuilders. Someone might actually buy that. Nobody's buying this pile of rotten lumber.

Come on now, that boat looks very restorable. A few pieces of mahogany, some caulking and paint and it'll be just like new.

Just a few hours on the weekends and you can have a boat that looks like this.

That someone would let a boat like this rot in the woods is truly amazing, and he admits he did this to that beautiful boat.

As long as I have been lurking here I can't believe I missed this thread. I have been looking for a boat for about two months(this time around) and it is the same story. Lots of junk for lots of money. I frequently read the Houston Craigslist ads and it is a reoccurring theme. No titles, no trailer registration. Some have only one soft in the floor, never mind the stringers are rotted beneath the floor. Ads that read Fantastic condition only to get there and it hasn't run in years, but it shouldn't take too much to get it running. RIGHT! "Titles are easy to get." Really? Then why don't you get it and make it easier to sell and get more money for it? Okay, rant off.
