Hey all

I just got the deal of a life time (i hope crossing my fingers). I just bought a 14 foot fiberglass boat

with a 50 hp motor troling motor depth finder and trailer for $350.00 And it has been only sitting for a year. Its been well mantained the motor is very clean the prop is hammerd but o well it just need some tlc I'v been jazzed all night. i can't wait till the weekend to get it running.

;D

   

Fingers crossed or not you got a GOOD deal.  You could scrape the boat off in parts and get that plus some.  Hope all does well with it and good luck ;D!

Sounds like a heck of a deal, wtg, and start off with fish in the boat is the best trip.  8-)

Let us know how it goes.  

Tight Lines!

Fish On!

Smokin Deal.  The motor is probably worth more than what you paid for the boat.  I have a project boat myself.  It was my first real boat and when I took it out by myself for the first time, I felt like I was just so free and the fish were at a major disadvantage.  Good luck with it.

  Thanks all

I will let you all know this weekend how it works out. I can't wait. ;D  

If the motor runs at all, you got a total steal on the boat.  For that matter, the boat and trailer are worth the price you paid, not counting the motor and depthfinder.  

I say congrats!  You got a great deal so use some of the money you "saved" and outfit it right!!!!

The second best day to a fisherman is the day he gets his first boat.. The best day is the day he catches a fish in it.  Congrats, have fun and enjoy.

       AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH  Please Help

Of all the things that could be wrong with the boat. we looked at is some more I pulled the plugs and alls looking good charged the battery it charged right up went to turn it over and iv got the wrong key

then i was looking at it and the steering linkage wasent hooked up so i hook it up and tri and turn it

and it wouldend move so i tried and turn the motor by hand no luck. the frigen pivet pin is rusted solid :'(

its real olds motor so replacement parts are going to be hard to come by..

Any one have any idia how to loosen it up.  It will all be good I'll just have to fish  counter clockwise  ;D
