another problem:

owners of "project boats",they tend to believe the boat's worth way more that what reality is.i see this alot - truth is,that rig's gonna need one of everything,and probably 2 of some.
with the current market,it's much easier,along with being cheaper to purchase something in running condition.
seriously,look at that rig - no electronics,engine's wasted - trailer looks a little mickey mouse...
be realistic: you're gonna drop a big piece of change,just for power - your own admission states the deck has soft spots - looking at a deck...puling a deck,might as well repalce fuel system,transom ? wiring ? see where this is going ? you're drop an easy $20k,getting that rig in nice condition,with electronics.you can purchase one,allready done for around the same coin...why go through the hassle ? if you question that number i dropped,than start addign things up - steering,electrical,fuel system,electronics,power,materials...these things add up quickly...

that rig,me,personally,i wouldn't offer more than $1,000...
by the "sound" of this,i doubt he'll take it...if he doesn't,he did you a favor...thank him...

i'm not trying to "talk" anyone out of a project,what i'm doing is,giving the cold hit of reality...
