Be cool if someone turned it into a bar or something.

I wonder how much it would cost to get it water worthy and hooked up for tubers / skiiers

That is almost identical to my boat, i have a 1977 somerset, maybe i should get this for the interior, cause that interior is WAY better than mine is!!

You could buy a decent little boat for cheaper than it would cost to fix this boat up.

 

I know, I tried to refurb a boat before and it nickle and dime'd me to death.... I was lucky enough to sell it for $500 and had well over $2000 in it.

At the 12 Hours of Sebring many years ago, there were two boats that had been mounted on 4WD chassis - the "Runaground I" & "Runaground II" that circulated the infield with girls in swimsuits riding and the occasional "skier" (water ski's w/skateboard trucks mounted) being towed behind. Looked like one hell of a landlocked party boat - just a thought for this excellent candidate....

It would cost more to make that an okay boat than it would to just buy an okay boat that needed a couple of minor fixes.

 

You have to figure you'll have a minimum of 2k in a used engine and outdrive setup, and that's if you are lucky. I couldn't find a used and running motor for my boat for less than $1600 (and I freaking LOOKED); so I just bought a new crate motor instead. Outdrives aren't cheap either.

 

You'd likely have 4k in materials making that boat nice...and it will still be a 31 year old boat, and look the part. You can really tell the difference between boats from even the early 80's to the late 80's...the designs overall seemed to change a lot in those years, and carried over through the 90's.

LOL, I am picturing that in my head and it is hilarious.
