Here is a jewel. He said the seats are useable but I wouldn't sit in them. The "rebuilt" motor too that looks untouched. He seems to be reposting it every few hours too.

looks good could use a good wash and polish
That's not all it needs...

And no title.. Are people really dumb enough to buy such?

Actually for the price it's kinda neat. Little sandpaper and some paint and I'd fish it!

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

EDIT: unless of course it's a poorly converted i/o hull..... can't tell for sure but it looks odd in the pic

you dont need titles on boats or trailers in TN either. just bill of sale and you are good to go.

No worry of that. There was no I/O option on those little Capris. That Force is definitely original equipment.

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

Marketing strategy #1: be so vague that the customer's curiousity will bring him out to look at it
Marketing strategy #2: give bad legal advice
Marketing strategy #3: use a popular brand for comparison even though your boat is nothing like it (an 18" Carolina Skiff (actually 17 or 19) is probably 6' wide--unless he means the old wooden skiff.)

Hi i have a project boat for sale. i have part of the flooring but needs the front half. it needs a motor and a trailer also. i dont have the title for it but you can go to a bait and tackle shop and file for a lost title. it floats and doesnt have any holes. it looks like a carolina skiff. its 18ft long and 3 1/2 to 4ft wide. am willing to deliver if you are in range if not i can meet you or you can come to my house. sorry i dont have any pics camera just broke. i am willing compermise on the prise its 225 obo. am will ing to trade for a dirt bike 90cc or higher or 4 wheeler 90cc or higher or an you can email me or call me between 10am and 4pm please no earlier or no later 757 xxx-xxxx if no one answers leave a message and i will get back with you asap THANKS

i missed an 83, Chris Craft 21' Scorpian, this week, $400. by 30 minutes. a boat like Gary H NC Chris Craft.

There's one up here with a dead 350 / rebuilt alpha. It needs 'tlc' too... in a big way!
He wants $4500 for it on the trailer... lol

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

This one just confuses me on many levels
http://york.craigslist.org/boa/2252438449.html

21ft with a 4 banger?

Not to mention a "skiff" to keep you dry?!? All for $400 a share. How many shares are being offered?

This has "SCAM" written all over it.

No 15' I/O Bayliners were ever made. The ad has been deleted. Too bad; it sounded "unique".

I have a 22'2" SportCraft Walkaround with a dry weight of 4300lbs. It's being pushed by a 26 year old 188hp 4 cyl Merc. It hits 33mph. I don't think it's a horrible combination; there are much worse out there... just sayin'

Thanks, Kevin! Looks to be about an '87, judging from the motor and hull graphics.
