"Just needs new upholstery"

I am guessing there may be a few more items that needs attention

 

[Baylinerchuck]

By the looks of it, I know you're right.

Used and abused....... Must have never seen a cover. Me thinks the skeg is mostly gone too......

 

[gm280]

WOW a few slip covers and you are good to go....NOT!

apart from the trailer being to big for the boat... it does not look like a bad deal.

 

[Grub54891]

Trailer and boat, I agree, not to bad a deal.

 

[WIMUSKY]

That's the best thing about the deal is the trailer........

 

[fishrdan]

Hmmmm.............. My Brody from Jaws "We're going to need a bigger boat" pic disappeared... Pic probably too big.

Not a boat, but looks like a real steal, especially with the fresh rattle can paint job

 

[Baylinerchuck]

Better have more than red spray bomb for that price. Sheesh.

 

[roffey]

... and yet they did not change the u joints on the out drive..

 

[gm280]

$6,000 dollars? "Shirley" you jest! Looks like he ran out of rattle can red paint too.

A $400.00 Sea Ray. https://sacramento.craigslist.org/boa/6070783793.html

The tarp must be in better condition than the interior of the boat!!
Another note, the method of attaching the tongue to the trailer frame by bolting seems like a bold move.

The three pictures that were taken didn't get any better no matter how many times the same ones were posted. For $400.00 I would imagine it needs more than a water pump. The trailer tongue is not a bold move. This is how both of my EZ Loader trailers were constructed. They were built to be adjustable and fit a multitude of hull designs.

Let's see, you want to sell your boat, so you lift up the cover just a little and take progressive pictures and post them without revealing anything. Yea, that will sell it I'm sure. And I seriously had to take a second look at picture 6. I honestly thought it was a picture of a bear's hand at first. :facepalm: :sorry:

 

[Grub54891]

His wife sell the dam thing! So he says ok, I'll put it up on craigslist, and see what happens.... (He would rather keep it.)

Chuck: Thanks for the note on the trailer. EZ Loader is certainly a time-honored firm, so it must be well-designed using high grade steel and hardware.
Back to Craigslist.
Cheers!

Drop a $6k motor in a $4k boat and you still have a $4k boat.....
