Project boat. I am pretty sure it's 1984 but I might be off by a year or two.

I Bought the boat running perfectly, used it 5-6 times with no problems. Had it winterized and decided to restore it over the winter. That was 8 years ago, I had some money issues at the time and then ended up moving to the west coast so it didn't get touched after I took it apart.

Here's what it has:

-Oklahoma dual-axle trailer - 3 of 4 tires still have full air in them after sitting for 8 years, but show some cracking - I'd replace them. Axles were greased just before the 30 mile trip from my house to my dads, but I'd have them looked at just in case.

-5.8 Ford that ran like a top, and was professionally winterized but not touched for 8 years.

-Transmission that shifted perfectly.

- Driveshaft, prop and rudder in PERFECT condition, not a scratch, not a dent.

-All the front glass and frames.

-Gauges all worked.

-Seats have great "bones", but obviously will need re-done.

- Shell is near-perfect, had one large chip in the front which I fixed/filled with fiberglass filler. It needs less than an hour's work to be ready for re-gel or ?

- Stringers are dry now (of course) but were wet, I'm going to say they need replaced but I am no expert.

Here's what's wrong:

- DIRTY. Animals have lived in it for 8 years. There's animal poo in most nooks and crannys. A few hours power-washing will be needed.
- Carpet and most of the upholstery is shot. Will need re-done.
- Needs the rope thing that goes into the rubber bumper.
- As above, I'd replace stringers.
- I can't recall if all the trailer lights worked, but I'm pretty sure they did. If I were going to use the trailer, I'd probably just replace all the wiring and lights with LED, though.


I may consider parting it out, because I know the working parts are probably worth more "split up" than the boat is. But, now I'm in TN and the boat is in MI and this would be difficult to do.

I'd love to sell it to someone who can either restore it, or who will part it out themselves and make some $$.

So, it's boat and trailer for sale... I'm open to offers. We'll let the market decide what it's worth!
