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

http://austin.craigslist.org/boa/2295275664.html this is a why not a little tlc boat I would think... wonder if the title is lost or something.

If the floor/stringers/transom is solid thatt's a really nice free boat!! Really nice. Well worth 2-3 grand for a rebuild/repower.


Allthough I'm not sure the best way to get it from the lift to a trailer if there is no boat ramp nearby? Maybe tow it with another boat to the nearest launch.

Missed this one today

http://swmi.craigslist.org/boa/2296468511.html

Posted at 10:40 PM last night, I sent text at 11:15pm, again at 6:30 this morning, called at 7,8 & 9. Guy called back at 9:15 saying it was gone, 5 minutes later he replied to my texts. I just wanted the tandom trailer.:(


Boat in Sister Lakes needs to go. If you can haul it away, its your for FREE.
Trailer is good, tires are flat and probably need to replaced or put back on rims to haul it out.
Exterior and motor of boat are in realtively good condition.
Interior is trashed and all would need to be replaced.
I do not have title and not sure if the keys are in the ignition or not.
It has to go per the bank ASAP. Call or text Mark for details xxxxxxxxxxxx

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

I have a 1987 19' Bayliner Capri with 4cylinder 2.3 liter. Fiberglass haul with an open bow. Interior is in decent contition some rips. Doesn't run at the moment because of a fried starter. This does also have a soft spot towards the back by the engine, very command with these boats. I want to fix it but my wife wants it out of the driveway. Skis, fishfinder, and dew cover included. Also comes with a roller on and off trailer ($700). This makes it quite a bit easier to load and unload on short launches.

Does about 40mph and can pull a skier

LOL at a waterlogged 2.3 19ft boat going 40mph. But, it is very "command" with these boats! Well ok then, i'll take it!

I've heard it helps to show a picture in your ads... worth a thousand words and all that jazz. But seriously, how many words is this photo worth?

HHmmmm...... this ones priced about $3500.00 to high. Bet he just laid the "marine plywood" over the original deck and called it good.


1975 Chrysler 17.5' Runabout with 105 Chrysler motor on 1976 E-Z load Trailer.
Complete with canopy and front bow cover and fish finder. I have also put in a marine
grade plywood floor with fiberglass over the top. The boat is in excellent condition and
runs great. I'm asking 4000.00 OBO.

If interested in taking a look or have questions please feel free to give me a call

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

I had a couple of terrible experiences on Craigslist as well. One time, I drove 2 hours to see a 20ft wellcraft and the guy gave me the wrong directions. After sending me on a wild goose chase, he finally answered my call and got me there. As I pulled up, he was handing the title over to a woman and counting her 100 dollar bills. I got fed up and bought a brand new 15ft Saturn inflatable boat for $1499. I couldn't be happier!
