I've requested more pictures from the seller, but I was curious what the old boat crowd thought about this model, price, and likely work that would be needed.

The engine I think would be the biggest issue for problems. Next in line would be the cable steering, other then that it is aluminum so if taken care of it should be water tight.

Making some guesses about the condition I see a lot of stuff in 'round here - she seems a little pricey.

If the interior is in much better shape than I suspect, and that outboard is running well, then maybe the price is okay. Trailer isn't sitting right for storage, and it's really hard to tell what kind of shape it's in from that picture.

Other than price - it'd be a fun hull to play with.

Is the bow cut out? Looks like it. Too much by at least double, especially needing a motor. No, she's a $200-300 boat, if that with a bad motor.

Ya looks like the bow is cut out, i wonder if that would effect structure? Need more pics.

Priced TOO HIGH because it needs motor replaced. I really am a fan of the aluminum however........ not that advertisement.

That trailer with tiny wheels may go $150 in good shape. The boat with no motor maybe $250 - $300. OK,, $400 - $500 if you really cannot wait for a better deal.

Boat, trailer, non-working motor? $400-$700 if the boat and trailer are in decent shape.
