Was towed by TOW BOAT US five years ago (yes 5+ years ago) abandoned by its owner (look up Auto Salon German Auto group) was in Germany and now for sale on Craigslist. Marina says the boat has sat on an outside rack for 5+ years....has bottom paint and really neglected, however it is the Season 5 boat from the TV show (if that matters) and for sale.

Hopefully someone will buy her and restore her to mint condition. What a piece of offshore history just rotting away!

If anyone can fill in the blanks on it's history for the last 10 years and why the owner just left it for dead please reply!

Here is the Craigslist add:

Are you sure it was the season 5 boat used in the shows?

Yes it is confirmed.

Boat was sold as of today, buyer looking for a trailer and planning a resto.
