Re: Funny "TLC needed" boat ads on Craigslist.
$10 may just get it for you!

Start by replacing the motor - check
Add stereo - check
Realize the rest of the boat will cost several times what it's worth to repair - check
Set the asking price based on what he already has "invested" - :facepalm:
Yeah all that and he's one of "those guys" who don't know/care how well sound travels over water.

A little duct tape and get her on the lake....
"Low retail on boat in current condition is almost $20,000. ONLY ASKING $8,000"
That thing looks like it's been beat hard and just destroyed. The hull will most likely never run well unless it's repaired by a pro. Let's face it the outboard most likely hasn't been cared for any better than the 1/2 covered pile of junk it's bolted too.The hole in the stern might:
As might these in the bottom of the hull:
And falling off the trailer ripped one of the consoles loose???
That derelict boat has been posted & re-posted numerous times on CL w/ the same price, same carp pix & same BS:$300 boat and trailer 20' must be picked up tomorrow - $300
MUST BE PICKED UP TOMORROW
Yeah all that and he's one of "those guys" who don't know/care how well sound travels over water.

buy a tralier get free boat
I just love the sellers who state..."must sell it immediately", or "moving-can't take it with me", or "lost my storage place, have no where to put it."
THEN they have the nerve to say...NO LOWBALLERS!
Well genius, if you admit that you are in a desperate situation...people are going to want to help relieve you of your burden...for a price.
A LOW one!
