[kloudie1]

Maybe on a bayou, but certainly not out in waves!

Not for me

I just have to think about feeding those 454's, and that takes it totally out of my thoughts.

I find it fascinating that a survey rated that circus wagon at a hundred large..

Especially since the sails are blown out. Just sayin'.

Nice! I'm sure those Somali pirates would make a bid for it. That would add nicely to their portfolio.

That thing is awesome...you are right though, sails are toast....better knock off 50k!

Yeah, I've got a single 350 that is hard to keep fed and watered. Thank goodness for the 1800cc motorcycle that actually gets 40mpg (if I can keep my throttle hand from twisting so hard!)

Mine only cost $75. It holds 10 and takes a 15 horse, or an F150 as shown. There is an apparent difference in amenities though.

Is she blue water capable? I didn't see that in the description but that would be a big plus. Looks like those big open windows could act as scuppers to keep the decks clear, ya know, in case you found another Walbridge type to sail her out into a hurricane. $110 survey? Glad they threw down some serious coin having her checked out.

In all seriousness it should be scrapped before it kills people. It is so top heavy and has so much freeboard, even a small number of people on the top deck, or a good gust could capsize her/it. I cant call it a her, its not worthy. Its an it.

If you read closely you'll see that it surveyed for "$110,00" a little creative placement of the "," in the add and most people don't realize that the survey is really for a much more accurate value of $11k, yet he's asking $79k!

 

[anchorclanker]

Well, I can survey it for free just by looking at the picture. It needs to be scuttled.

It would make a heck of a sailing club clubhouse - at the $ 1,100 level. If you look at houseboat prices, they are rich. I'd love for my club to find a reasonable houseboat to use as committee boat, and as a "Meeting" room. Transport from our friends from the mid-west is not practical. But it's fun to think of.
