Re: Another newbie thread...
Ok went and looked at it. I think its too much for me to handle, in words of repairs. The pictures don't show a lot. On the outside passenger side rear corner, they banged it up a lot, it's scratched and there's one part in the middle of all the 50 scratches, where the actual coating is rubbed off and the fiberglass is showing. I have no idea how to repair that. In the cabin, there's like that carpet material around the windows, and on the passenger side side of it, it's all ripped off. On the dash I guess you would call it, above the door to the cabin, its a hard plastic, it looks like it was just baked in the sun, it's all cracked and that whole thing would need to be repaired. The swim ladder is broken and then there's plastic vents on the outside of the boat, I don't know what they are for, but they are broken so there basically open holes and I don't know what got it in there. There was frozen water, a little bit, not a ton, in the bilge area (I think that's what it was lol) I opened the 2 doors on each side of the engine and looked in there. The trailer is all rusted and it needs new tires, more or less I think it needs a new trailer altogether. Unfortunately I didn't take anyone with me to assist but just from initial inspection I didn't feel comfortable about it. I'm guessing once it went into repo status the owners didn't care about it either, so I don't think its the right boat for me. Any opinions?
