    That guy loves insurance boats........he also owns the "Bonefish" 36 Spectre which blew over killing the owner.

    This boat looks to be a better project than the one the guy bought in the midwest a couple years back. That one had hull damage, this one the hull looks complete but everything else is crispy.

    With prices getting lower boats like this really aren't worth messing with. When a 38/42 TS boat was getting 200K then this project would make sense dumping 100K in it. But when the market changed, this boat will cost more than buying a complete boat when done!

    Garbage. Might be good for a small handful of mechanical parts (pair of blowers, blocks and drives, if nothing else), but the boat belongs in a landfill.

    Sad.

    IT says right in the add it just needs MINOR fiberglass work. I would hate to see this guys idea of a major repair. The hull MIGHT be ok if you replace the deck and everything else in the boat.

    I'd say a boat sales location could put it on there roof as advertisment. Still needs a lot of work to make it presentable in the air.

    Well, compared to how much he smoked ,,its only little damage !!

    If he sells it for 10-15 K ,,its worth working on it.

    1 year ...50K and your ready to go !!!!

    Hate to say it but the guy is somewhat right the motor hoses are not melted... Would that mean the motors may be good after a bath? I think the answer would be no but I thought I would ask.

    Blower boats were carefully removed and then sold on ebay to a another speed demond that broke his pulleys from going so fast.


    Just kidding. You got to enjoy the sellers remarks

    The cheapest and easist way to do that is to put it on ebay, no reserve... bet you can get someone to pay you at least a grand to haul your trash away.
