Guys - We have a little problem. You know how a while ago this topic was almost shut down. Our own self-policing is all that kept it going and one of the things we have to watch for is self posting. I'm going to have to edit out the CL links.

Oh yeah that monster 24' Chief looks like a winner to me, good price too! I can see Sig diving into one of those monsters with a IO to boot.

Yah, the tandem axle setup might need a lil attention on that one though ^^^ The little tires on the rear axle help launching. :rolleyes:

Now that one there has got my head kinda spinnin:shocked: I do believe that's the gauge cluster right from the Mustang too eh. A low mileage Holiday is hard to pass up, only 21,552 mi. Did you catch the trailer? :eek:
Here's a pretty darn good deal....

If the Islander and Holiday weren't SC tinnies - Over to the TLC topic they go. :smile:

The 16 footer is a decent looking project and maybe not too much needed.

Sorry Guys I am strictly an outboard guy. I have been looking at that Chief for a little while I just have no interest in the extra maintenance that goes with an I/O. Plus I have the Jup coming up next.

There is however, a 20SS in South Carolina right now for only $5000, way out of my bottom feeder price range. Y'all just need to wait until I get started on the Jup, I am just hoping that my quality level will be up there with Grandad's and Dozer's.

There have been a few come and go there was a 16SS in Ktown as well for $1500.00

Converting an IO to OB is anything but easy. Lots of engineering metal work. No knee braces, no splashwell and there's that pesky keyhole.

Besides it's blasphemy! :heh:

Could I do it Maybe who knows, the bigger problem is I really have absolutely no desire to do it. I will take my noisy smoky fuel inefficient, low maintenance, easier to operate outboard any day of the week.

Besides at the moment I have bigger fish to fry, including finishing the Sl which I have already come to the conclusion is never going to be complete just kind of a useable mess.

And starting on the Jup.

I have given consideration to using the 115 yammy I have in the shop on the Jup but I just don't think it is the right look for it. Not to mention overpowering by about 30 ponies can't be good for it.

If I could convince the wife, I’d pull the sterndrive off ours and put on a couple old 140 hp 4 cyl smokerudes.... Absolutely nothing like the smell of a 2 stroke about 6am on a cool foggy morning

Listed as a 12ft'r & a 15ft'r... Looks awful long for a 12ftr....

By my count, that's likely a whole flotilla for about $1K

This is the guy I bought my 76 Mariner from back in 2009. WOW! 5 years ago and I am just now getting back to working on it. He told me about this boat back then, I had never seen it. This boat was parked on Lake Lanier. It was a few days before the 4th of July weekend back in 2009.
OH! by the way hello again everyone.

Another old Chief languishing in the northern woods. Looks to be a mid-70's 18'er. Good price. That 60 HP triple might even run. Kind of reminds me of finding my Chieftain a couple of winters ago...right down to it being pre-gutted.

EDIT: where do people come up with these arbitrary scrap values? You're in for a heaping plate of disappointment at the scrap yard if you think you're gonna get $1K out of that.
