Re: Funny "TLC needed" boat ads on Craigslist.

I'm not sure this is still classified as a 'motor', let alone for $300.

Re: Funny "TLC needed" boat ads on Craigslist.

I think I'm going to run out and grab this one.
Includes a title... just not the one for the boat shown.

http://newjersey.craigslist.org/boa/1944663985.html

i have a 1975 checkmate for sale. nice little boat and i cant find one like it anywhere. I dont have any paper work for the boat or the trailer. but i do have a good tittle for another boat that can be used. but you would have to take the other one two. the other boat is a starcraft bowridder with a 70 hp johnson motor. i would like to get 100 bucks for that boat because of the good tittle and moter and controls. the starcraft does not have a trailer so you would have to get it out by other means or pay me 200 for the boat and i will give you all the good stuff motor,controls and vin tag , tittle and i will cut the boat up for you. call Matt 201 755 0513

The belises look ok on the starcraft in this ad, but should probably be checked for dry rot just in case.

Be aware that the yellow boat is fiberglass, and the title is for an aluminum boat. Going to be obvious if you try to use the Starcraft title on the Checkmate. Just thinking out loud....

just have to wonder how a boat with no seats or motor is worth that much?

needs some assembly (motor not installed, thats a little bit of assembly)

I'd like to see the new owner explain that one to the DMV/F&G/DOW. :D

Yes I have a title, it's not for this boat, but I'm going to use it for this boat...:rolleyes:

If it's time to check that, it's also probably time to check the blinkerfluid in the trailor lights...oh, and pick up some fresh chem-light batteries too.



At one time years ago if there was an add for a car and it said it had bucket seats, there really was a chance that the seating consisted of a 5 gallon bucket where the real seats used to be...and other than looking like a dumb____ there was nothing wrong with doing it legally.

Ya know, it's not always boat ads that catch the eye...
And it's not strictly Craig's List ads, either....

If any of you's guys need some bossa wood lures with "battle scares" or a "Slomam Ski" to go with your new belises, muffler fluid change, or blinker bearing tune-up these two characters will get ya fixed right up! :D

Re: Funny "TLC needed" boat ads on Craigslist.

I think you guys are all forgetting the most important thing. Now that summer is coming to an end, we all need to start thinking about that trailer tire air. If it hasnt been properly changed out to winter air, I would stay far away from that boat.
