Trailer alone is probably worth $800.

It would also be interesting to know if the motor was running and in gear when it hit what ever it hit. Did the motor start??? Aside from the bottom damage I lover the color scheme!

Whew that's a beautiful boat! I'm hoping you keep us all informed of your progress with photos and progress reports. You must be excited about the project.

Just picked up the boat for 1,840. On the way home now. Falange doesn't look that bad.
Here's a link to the video someone made about 7 years ago of the same boat. https://youtu.be/OGVMTBTslS0    |

Did you see the 95 being parted out on the other thread? Maybe make one good boat and sell the extra parts. Might be a cheap date.

Sorry it's a 94, but I'm going to go take a look at it. My guess is the guy didn't have insurance on it and to fix him self it's going to cost 8-10k. I found that things like this gives people a reason to go buy a new boat.
Going to try to find the parts used if I end up getting it. Anyone know the part numbers? What year boats could i pull parts from? |

Ouch, that's a bad day on the lake. That must have made a huge crunch on impact. I'm sure an experienced boat restoration business could fix that up like new.

Mike,
Have you seen the 97 in person? If so, were you able to inspect the hull for internal damage? Visible cracks in the hull etc.? As Chris mentioned, there is a reason the seller isn't fixing it. Is it a salvaged boat by the insurer? Welcome to CCfan. Keep us posted as to what you end up doing. |

Wow that's quite a bit of damage. Wonder what kind of hours it will take to fix. Is that more work than replacing stringers? Would like to see this boat repaired by someone here just so I could see how it's done and what it takes.

Hard to say without knowing if the rest of the boat is OK. It must have taken on water up to flotation buoyancy with those big holes.
If engine/tranny & upholstery is savageable -$1500. There is a reason the seller doesn't want to get it fixed. |
