Default Re-post from 2007 father passed away

This Seacraft was purchased by us in April 2006 from the original owner in Texas for $12,000.00. Along with the boat we were supplied with original documents and a letter from the owner asking us to care for his baby. The boat has its second motor and second galvanized trailer. All other components are in their original excellent condition as the boat was stored inside and continues to be stored under cover.

Listed below are items replaced or upgraded;
MOTOR; Is a 1989 225hp Johnson with a 15in X 17in. stainless prop, the voltage regulator was replaced 8-2006. Compression readings are @95 lbs. No hour meter but the motor is very clean indicting low usage. Fuel flow gauge indicates 2 miles per gallon @4400rpms cruising 27 knots.

Trailer; Sportsman, galvanized steel dual axle bunk style, front axle has drum style brakes. 8-2006 three of the five tires were replaced. Completed brake assemblies and master cylinder replaced using parts from the manufacturer. Winch strap replaced.

Boat; A survey was completed by Gemini Marine Survey Inc. before we purchased the boat, discrepancy’s noted were fixed.
New fuel lines, shut off valve, cartridge filter.
New wiring and fuse block under console, two batteries and battery switch.
New Lowrance fuel flow gauge.
New LED lighting under the gunwales, in console and below deck.
New Bennett trim tabs.
New stern light.
New high water alarm.
New aluminum frame for bimini top.
New switches on dash board.
New bilge pumps (2).
New AM/FM cassette stereo with two speakers and XM ant.
New Rod holders (4).
New cushion for forward deck.
New re-enforcement of all deck hatches, plywood replaced with composite and glassed in by local boat builder.
New white boot stripe installed.
New brass through hull sleeves replaced (9)
New compass
New 100 Gallon alum. fuel tank with dual pickup's/2008.

The hull and deck gelcoat is original and looks as if it just came from the factory. This boat is truly a classic and has been maintained in its original configuration even the original fuel gauge and speedometer work.

Asking price $12,000.00 PayPal sent 10/07/07 should I pay again?

***Update 12-16-2009; We kept the boat for taking the father fishing because of the high gunwells, he has since passed away. The summer of 2009 the transom was replaced by Hermco and a 15 gallon freshwater tank with pump installed. A valve allows freshwater or seawater wash down.

The new purchaser will receive all documantation from the original owner. As he said when I asked him how he came up with the price he said "I want the amount I paid for the boat in 1975 back." I'm saying the same thing in 2009, 12,000.00 gets it. 352-302-4573
