Want to Buy 23' CC (no motor)

Hey gents-

I thought I would pass these used boat leads on...

On Saturday, I saw two interesting boats for sale.

The first boat was a 1977 Seacraft Sceptre.....looked to be in decent shape but no price was listed but the phone number was on the sign.

The second boat was a 1998 Ocean Master 27' CC (flag blue hull, red bottom, white bootstripe) It also came with a custom MYCO dual axle trailer (pretty sweet looking) Asking price was $18,000 for the hull and trailer only. No engines or electronics are on the boat.

I'm not sure why the guy is selling the hull and trailer.....maybe it sunk and spent some time on the bottom or perhaps the hull rides like crap??? Just something to think about if you go to look at it.

Both boats were on the side of the driveway/road that leads to the New England Boatworks/Alden Yachts/Hinckley yards in Portsmouth, RI.

Good luck.

The Blue Ocean Master named "Sound Rover" sank last early 2002. The boat sat for 1-2 months before isurance totalled it. It then moved down to NEB and has been a mystery. 18K is not too bad a price non the less.

So this is the 2nd time you are in town and no phone call??? where's the love [img]images/icons/tongue.gif[/img]

Hey Jason-

Yeah, I was in your neck of the woods hunting down some leads. You know me....I feel funny stopping by unannounced.

Hope you had a nice turkey day.

PS- I had a strong feeling the Ocean Master sunk....no engines, no electronics...usually means that it went to the bottom. I must say not to impressed with the print through on the hull and the crappy awlgrip job.
