Free boat for $2500??? Comes with free trees!!

http://lafayette.craigslist.org/boa/5489293803.html

Well if you wait another year, you can even use the "free" wood from the trees growing inside the hull for the transom replacement wood. :facepalm:

How can you not be interested in such a grand deal with the owners pleasent attitude.

His reply was nicer than I would have thought from how he worded his ad.

I would have thought that an application of roundup would have taken less time than typing the wording for his ad.....and it might have a slight effect at improving the boats appearance:hopelessness:

What the ad really says:

"Please haul off my junk so I don't have to pay to haul it off.

BTW... pay me for letting you haul it off."

I think that was already posted,,, but the poster is honest, he said its free or he may pay you to take it away. I can't believe a boat would burn down to just the engine block and not burn the trailer as well.

It looks like to me it was on the water and as boats will do it burned down to the waterline and sunk. I'm betting they retrieved it onto the unscathed trailer.
