well i finally decided to sell the jet boats and get something bigger so they both sold at a fairly reasonable price to move them quick and i bought a 1994 chaparral 18' bowrider with a mercruiser 3.0 inboard 4 cylinder. paid $3000.00 for it and drove 1 1/2 hours to get it and 1 1/2 hours home, put it in the water only to find the motor was junk so i called the guy and told him to come get it which he did and gave me my cash back and told me he was gonna junk it so i offered him $500.00 and he took it saying he didnt wasnt to tow it back home then junk it. i paid 800.00 for a used motor and installed it and long story short..... i have a beautiful , great running boat for $1500.00. the boat was originally listed for $5500.00 on craigslist.

Nice boat but that trailer looks four feet too short.
