Oculyer, those are PICTURES. You know how to come across. 
Sandman, I have looked at 3 different classics over the past year, and all have had the rails.
Knowing my resources and capabilities, my perfect boat would be one between project and restored. One where the structural and mechanicals have been gone through and can be relied on, but some cosmetics and miscellaneous still need finishing. Probably hard to find. Another requirement is fitting within my 98" wide storage gate. Im used to having one inch clearance on each side of the trailer fenders, LOL Seems a stupid consideration, but such is my plight living in modern suburbia in a cookie cutter home.
Unfortunately I have several important things demanding my time right now so my searching will have to take a short break but I have lots more reading to do. |
This 19 sounds like a perfect fit for you.
The deck is rock solid. The transom has been done. The engine has good even compression
and being a v 4 is the perfect lightweight candidate for balance and the "ride" as we call it.
The work was done by one of the finest shops in the area bar none.
This boat is a steal. You could run it as is for years and upgrade as time and funds allow.
It was a barn find. These don't just fall from trees. It is a great honest platform.
If you like, I will go measure her fender to fender.
It will take 3 k as he has had her for a couple of years and is not really marketing her.
The work was done at shop payment figures not customer money.
He knows what it is and wanted to save her for some lucky family member.
She needs cosmetics, but the heavy lifting has been done.
CJ still has her original deck and it is also solid.
