Sounds as if someone is trying to avoid selling a boat but telling his wife he is. That guy is good Ill remember that when my wife starts complaining about all the boats parked in the backyard.

Soft floor, unknown motor, sure.....


17' Four Winns, 3.0 liter - $2000 (Menomonee Falls)
Date: 2010-09-21, 7:33PM CDT


1995 Four Winns with trailer, 3.0 liter OMC. Boat has been professionally winterized for the 10+ years that I have owned the boat. It has been pulled out of the water and covered whenever not in use. The interior vinyl and carpets are great shape. There is a soft spot in the floor towards the front directly behind the fiberglass floor of the open bow.
Engine needs work. Water pump impeller insert came loose, causing impeller not to spin and not to pump water. Cylinder head needs to be removed to check the condition of the cylinder head and cylinder exhaust bellows.
Green Snap-on cover and bimini top included.
Stainless steel and aluminum prop included.
$2000 or best offer


* Location: Menomonee Falls

Is that what one looks like after the trailer rots completely away?

The first thing that came to my mind after I read he would deliver it was that Bubba test video on Youtube.

i would buy it for 150 just for parting it out, then sink the hull to rid the world of such an ugly boat.

At $150, I might go for it, if I knew more about outboards.. if it would run could sell it for a profit.

speaking of 1929, something cool i picked up awhile back...

antique medicinal liquor perscription form, the perscription was written on Oct 27th 1929 to a Joe Gates in PA. Hopefully he saved the whiskey for at least two days!!!

LOL at the "book value" http://york.craigslist.org/boa/1971120045.html
Click to expand...

NADA Value puts that boat at about $4100, but what he forgot to deduct for is about $1000 for the missing windshield, another -$3500 for the missing engine, and another -$1200 for the general poor condition of the hull. The way I see it, that leaves its value at negative $1600. If he's willing to cough up that, I'd haul it away and dispose of it for him.
The $1600 would barely cover the gas and about two days labor cutting that thing up, plus a $150 trip to the dump with about a ton and a half of glass and wet foam to get rid of.
