good for you, nothing like someone paying you to go play on their boat all summer and then putting it away for the winter.

Hey, no worries. We know that boats COST money, I was feeling thrilled how this worked out....rare to have fun AND make a buck.

Yup....it's a good 'continent'.

good deal.
i bought a 12 foot welded for 400. sold the 6hp for 350. the boat and trailer for 500. net profit of 850.00. i put no money into it, just clean the boat, trailer, and motor.
then bought a 14 foot riveted boat and trailer. painted the boat. picked up a 1996 merc 15hp for 100 bucks (it was frozen). put in some marvel oil and the next day it turned over. changed all the gaskets and rebuilt the carb. i spent 150 bucks on the motor, and about 100 bucks in paint. i sold the boat, motor, trailer for 1400.00
now in the beginning of summer i bought a 86 bayliner for 1000. i think i paid too much. oh well.
i did make some $$ on the other boats!
gotta love cl sometimes;)
