What a shithole. Gotta love a fully Harbor Freight Tarped roof!

The boats look all of similar brand, and all just hulls. Wonder if its old builder inventory?

The assesed value of 4M is too steap for 6th street steers and queers ville in Norco. That value is more than LA pricing on .82 acres.

I’m 99 percent sure it’s a rented storage yard for someone I know that does a lot of fiberglass work on mostly flat bottoms. I don’t think he would appreciate me giving his name so I won’t. Great guy though if you need some glass work done. I bought a nice tandem trailer out of there so I got to go stomping around the yard. I was like a kid in a candy store.🇱🇷

Having been in that animal rescue I will say it’s a red tag biohazard special. That whole place needs to be encapsulated and torn down. We did our best to clean it up as volunteers but it was horrible. We switched to just trying to get all the animals adopted out of there.

Back left house with the tarp roof was dogs. That fenced area with the easy up in front was their exercise yard. The front building had at least some cats if I remember correctly. The people running it had a good heart but would accept any animal regardless of if they were equipped for it or had space for it. Definitely need full inside access for inspection before closing a purchase. Building on the left I don’t know about being able to get that smell out of it.

Was she Ok after that mishap, I don't remember if I saw that.
Yes she was OK, They were testing on Elsinore. Cant remember exactly what happened. But I think that was the last time she Drove.

Her Brother Jasper was racing a different boat. After Jay's accident at Long Beach MacDonalds and Mactilleys hung up the boat racing. I just saw recently she got married.

Haha That's my fiberglass buddies yard he rents. I've had many boats waiting for glass in there over the years and about to drop another one off in a few weeks.
He have any hulls for sale? Or all customer's projects etc?

A little hard to tell if it’s the same boat . But I think that’s a Hondo sitting right in front of the trailer with the green bunks the boats off to the right in the photo. I took a look at it, it’s his boat and he was willing to sell it about a year ago

Just texted with him, he’s got two Hondos in there. One true flat and a runner bottom + a Barron Sprint . All definitely projects, he’ll sell them extra cheap . There’s nowhere for them to go if the yard sells.

Nice. I'm assuming no jets in that yard, just V-drives?

The 1978 syndicate (black) is a copy of a hondo. 3/8" runner bottom with all the hardware less motor and v-,drive. Nice tandem axle trlr. It was set up as a circle runner.
The yellow 1973 Roger's jet is a good hull but rough on the gel. Will need some coring.
The 1983 21' Eliminator jet cruiser (brown) is nice boat. lt will clean up nicely. Have some hardware for it. Pump avail if necessary on a competitive tandem axle.

Early 60s Starfire, 413 Lincoln needs rebuilding. I’ve got the owners number if you want it.
Thanks for the offer, I was just curious as I am about all old boats, but now's not the time for an all wood hull. I don't have an indoor place for storage.
Still, would love to see some pics of the old girl.

Man that would suck to destroy those that are salvageable. Yes, they would need a lot of work and money to get them back on the water......but it seems like such a shame to destroy them.
