Re: Starcraft on C-list/ebay!

Good thing I'm not allowed to bring any more boats home.

I wonder if she was serious about that?

I can't think one more would hurt, right?

Or, maybe it would really hurt!

A few possibles in there:

But other then motor, not many beyond the hull............ Should be a quick & easy gut:

If the seller is REALLY ready for it to be OUT of his driveway,
I'm not wanting to deal with it anymore
then I think it's worth a discussion PRIOR to dragging it home. Maybe NOT before buying it, but early warning would certainly help to keep ya outta the brig (or WORSE :eek:).....

But, I'm from LasVegas, it's ^^^ the gambler in me writing checks MY marriage doesn't have to cash :watermelon:

Hey, you might even score enough worms to rig you & the boys out for all of the 2014 fishing season :facepalm: 'free' bonus..........

that one could hurt twice...once when you bring it home and once more when you have to admit to her that you won't be able to get a title...

Yah, I'd be gambling that I could score that at half his asking price. Bringing it home would no doubt be a gamble too. Major gamble!!!

JB, just suggesting another boat coming on the property is betting it all buddy:tape2:

you won't be able to get a title...

I may, or may not, have talked to the Secretary of State already:becky::eagerness:

Re: Starcraft on C-list/ebay!

What would a boat recycler like yourself get for a gutted, titled, trailered SN in the spring?

What could you get for a gently rehab'd (not completely resto'd) & RUNNING Evinrude 55hp motor in the spring?

I'd answer those questions 1st & proceed as you see fit, but as a FOR SALE project, NOT a rebuild it & sell it, or a rig to be KEPT......

After some costs for titling, a little trailer work, some dirty gutting the boat work, and some much needed motor maintenance, I think it'd net you almost half the cash you need to fill the biggin's gas tank. Once anyway......

Good luck

Deadrise!! heck the only thing dead there is the 300lbs of vegetation and compost in the hull.
I am sure its the neighborhood kid who threw topsoil and seed on it last year, so it would look bad to every one , and no one would buy it. Thus allowing him to save his allowance to buy it himself

Looks like the crestliner sold, if I had room in the shop I would have snagged it. Nearly complete with a great old running engine for $1200

It was on evilbay, closed NO bids yesterday or earlier today. So might have sold but the ad might have just expired too.............

It couldn't be that hard to hide it among your fleet,..........

By the time she knew it was there you could be finished with the build,............................

that kind of resourcefulness and thinking ahead is all too rare to see......but someone should warn the kid what that will lead to when he gets older.....is Jas our Designated Poster Child for MBS?

Re: Starcraft on C-list/ebay!

she actually has been making noises about a yak for a while.....and as a Crazed Bicyclist who pedals 100+ miles/week to work, the Mirage drive system should be just the thing for her........just not sure how serious she is. if it was a tandem, i'd do it tomorrow.
