Default Re: 23 CC -I/O Rebuild

Yeah but Jeff-
You could still get a Potter hull that has been recently restored.For example, when I bought my hull the guy had one that he restored for sale.Brand new restoration, less than 10 hours.Potter hull, pristine Imron robin's egg blue,off- white cockpit,recessed hardware, new tank, new wiring, everything perfect,straight yanmar diesal inboard with motor in the console, sitting on a 64 roller galv trailer brand-nu.He was asking mid 30's for it, and would have settled for less, but not much less because as he put it " I got nearly 30 into it without my labor"
Now thats the way to go.A lot of people won't shell out that kind of money for a 30 year old boat, a lot of banks won't finance it.But if you bought that bare hull, paid to have it redone and powered, you'd be above that. Makes sense to me?
