Price is right. Needs a tidy up. No motor.http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/TRIMARAN-SHALLOW-DRAFT-FIBREGLASS-NEEDS-REPAIR-Storm-HIN-NSW-REG-JUST-EXP-FREE-/121698598814?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_15&hash=item1c55cd3f9e
You could put a match to it, but it would probably not burn as it would be too water logged. Boats are like people they cost money to bury after they die.
Hey drog, if you tried to launch yourself off the deck of that one, it would give way underneath you!!
...........It's costing her $50 a week to keep it tethered where it is! Sounds like she wants someone to pay her to get rid of it. She should just pull the winches etc, off it and send it to the tip, sell the winches to cover the tip fee, job done!

I'm not sure those winches are worth that much. I'd buy a pump, hire a boat, tow her somewhere deep and say farewell. Maybe the deck gear would cover those costs. Maybe not. But $50 a week!
If the seller only values it at $1.00 why should I value it any higher and actually bid on it?

It's actually free. That's why I mentioned the price was right.
Towing it away to sink may be very expensive! Now if it was a steel yacht there would be some scrap value.
I agree with Jode5, this may be one of the many boats that are left after a family bereavement. The bloke selling the Mottle 33 having a pre deceased sale is a very good idea.
Yes Rant I'm always up for a challange! , if you finance the project I will make bring her back to her original glory!

Part of any restoration is funding the project. What I can do is give my personal guarantee that I will buy the fully restored craft from you at its fair market value on completion of your restoration. Only out for me will be if you insist on installing a **** holding tank over the owners bunk in the master stateroom.
Just for you Rant I will fit the holding tanks out on the pontoons you then can gravity drain them on either tack if the need to lighten up your ship/sh#t!
or we can arrange it such to your current yacht where it just pumps directly onto your head when your having a nice swim in some lovely marine park !
Donk, yes Cornelian Bay it is. He has been engineless cruising since Paynesville.
My current idea is that we hold SouthAce to his restoration job. You will be useless if you can't even varnish a tiller. Have Trave buy the tri and sail West to East across the Pacific. Sell it in the states and finish up with ****loads of coin keeping the accountant in Yarra and Cisco happy. If we get $2 as a fair value of the tri I can buy it and still keep within Ciscos 5% of net worth invested in a boat cause my present net worth is $10 AUs.
I would be fitting a helm/wheel pilot at your expense Rant, I'm not sure you read the previous post where you would finance the re-build. No varnish tillers Rant!

No you are required to finance the rebuild. I will buy the restored boat at market value. Otherwise you are full of ****,

I thought that you didn't enjoy my posts and I am surprised that you responded.
. Maybe you forgot what you were going to say a few days later.

Bugger
i was looking forward to helping out
it's not that I can't varnish it, more that I haven't got a round to doing it yet
it it has only been 2 years and you can't rush these things
