there are 2 18's at a boat salvage yard here in tuscaloosa, al. one is intact and one missing parts but a pretty blue hull. they are going out of business and may sell very reasonable. i am getting the top off one for a friends 19, think it will fit but about 6" shorter than the 19 top. I would rather have a 19 top if anyone has one. let me know if there is any interest and i can get you in touch with them.

Guy in Atlanta decided not to sell a this time.
Is there any market for an old worn out 18?

I will be driving through Tuscaloosa at the end of May. If the salvage yard is still open, I would love to get their information from you.

You can call Smitty at C n C marina at 205-242-4072. They have 2 18's. One complete needing work and one with parts missing. They are selling the business so suggest you call and talk to him. the complete one is older 4 cylinder and has been sitting a long time. A recent storm blew the top over onto the bow. He has one nice 19 there that he is doing some work on for a customer, will be very nice when fixed.

Just heard the tornado did damage to C n C boat yard, don't know if there are any boats there now. Hope it didn't destroy one really nice 19 owned by a friend there for some repairs. I ride my bicycle to work right through the worst damage in Alberta City, houses completely gone and many still missing. It missed me by 1/2 mile, we were in the storm shelter with neighbors.

Re: aristocraft 18 for sale

Just heard from the mailman who delivers to C n C and also owns an Aristocraft 19. He said the tornado took all the boats and the buildings and he doesn't know where his 19 ended up. That's one less 19 and two less 18s in existence. Sad. Sadder is the trailer park nearby that is also gone and people missing.
