This guy feels the need to add "I am a hobbyist mechanic with over 25 years of automotive and marine restoration experience and have bought, fixed and sold over a dozen boats over the past 15 years or so." Yet he hasn't started the motor or cleaned the boat?

On the other hand, he does "feel pretty confident that it will run."

You're just 'way too critical, ez :D

Ok, if this boat being worth 5700 makes your boat worth 57,000......but that boat is actually only worth 570 so your boat must only be worth 5700....in which case I've got a check for 5700 with your name on it. :D What? :p

No . . . here's how my logic went. I am thinking that ride is really worth around $1850 and mine is probably worth $18,500. Should be more but boat prices are waaaaay down here now. Show up with $18,500 and we'll talk . . .

I bet this gets a lot of calls: No pic, no email, an extra zero in the price and a 22 year old boat.

Re: Funny "TLC needed" boat ads on Craigslist.

The owner is a mechanic, so I guess it never lost any value over the last 24 years. Or else his '0' key sticks.

The best part is that I don't believe they made a 20' boat that year, they had a 19 and a 21 footer, so who knows what this guy has or thinks he has.
