Nice boat. I bought the boat that was in storage. Have done a lot of work cleaning and polishing it up. It looks very good now. Put a rebuilt V-drive in it and a turbo 400. Steve the owner was nice enough to help me find the original motor mounts and drive line for it. It is ready for the motor...
Warning to everyone, do not make any deals with the one listed on Craigs list out of LA. It was on Ebay a few months ago and he was asking almost 6k for it. Had five offers and countered at 4,700. Said he had it sold. Now comes up in Craigs list with the exact add as was on Ebay. Now asking...
I drove up to Davis and bought it yesterday. Nice boat but not beautiful. Towed it back to San Luis Obispo area. No problems with trailer. The motor would not stay in the up position, so had to strap it up. Needs a lot of cleaning, but no major damage.
You are correct. I looked at this one in Perris the day before I bought the one in storage in Arizona. It needs a Lot of work. Very nice man owns it. He is closing down his contractor business and is now going to enjoy life, so I am sure he would be willing to deal somewhat on it.
