Funny "TLC needed" boat ads on Craigslist.

Maybe it was hot ... With no title and fuzzy pics . Didn't want anyone to recognize it .. :suspicious:

It was obviously hot Sam, it was steaming in the pics. :drum:

He's about double over priced for his whale hinting SC. :lol:

Do all Sc''s have that center hole for fuel lines and cables? ^^^^I kinda like that. All my stuff comes out the same side and boot as the steering cable and is quite messy. Scuffs the splash well even.

Some do and some don't. I have two on each side of the splashwell. It is messy.

I would rather have a center port like the SC above and one on the side for steering.

I think I would too GA. Something to look into.

Must have! I wonder if $25.00 would be the best offer he's received...

Well it won't be because of the quality of the wood! :lol:

 

[sphelps]

I would drag it home .:loco:.. At the right price ... But I love these old runabouts ..

We had a Crosby. It was a nice boat, until the keel cracked. My screen name came from that boat. The Cr was missing from one of the emblems, so we called it Osby.

Looks like a Gator trailer, would be worth $3-500 in my area.

 

[mickyryan]

see you guys just aint seein the poooo-tential! just think if you put 10 grand in her she will easily net ya 5k back I mean cripes its simple math

 

[Patfromny]

The only way you get the 5000 is if you physically put 4900 in her , as in currency. Otherwise I can't see that boat fetching more than 3000 restored. Nice lines but probably a small market. I've got about 6000 plus in my 2500 boat. Lol. 77 Crestliners aren't burning up CL.

 

[mickyryan]

nay say'er its a rare jewel I tells ya! look at that perfectly weathered wood !

 

[Patfromny]

I like the transom in the front seat look. That was a rare option

I thought of you as I looked at her, 64. Complete emblems!

 

[mickyryan]

pfft don't everyone keep the transom in the front seat when you on the hard?

 

[64osby]

It is a seat cushion in the front seat. The ad states $500 obo, yes the listing states $5000.

I could buy that and make money off it at $500, if the motor ran or not.

If the motor runs and the hull is sound it is a great starter boat.

I paid $600 for mine, used it for 8 years, then parted it out for over $1,600. Then I took the hull to the dump.
