1970 Bonefisher - Restored - Now Project Again!

[Dollrbillz]

2 1/2 years for restoration and completed and put into March 15th of 2016.

What is new - wood removed and replaced with composites, customized hull cap with two 35 gallon live wells, 3 dry storage compartments, non-skid, boat painted, wiring and control panel, running and interior lights, poling platform with flip padded back rest, seat cushions, gas tank, hydraulic jack plate, hydraulic trim tabs, hydraulic steering, rub rail, batteries, battery switch, bilge pump, live well pumps and plumbing, a brand new 2015 Etec 115HP High Output (warranty did not start until Feb 2016) which makes this boat get up and scoot!!! Engine hours less then 100 and I did not even use one tank of engine oil.

 

The trailer has torsion suspension (no springs) three new tires and refitted with new cross members so the boats sits better.

 

Now the bad news - I hit a submerged object and scrapped the bottom of the hull as well as cracked the transom and the lower unit needs replaced.  My boat has now turned into someone else's project.  Asking $15,000. Thanks for looking.

Oh my word.  Man, my deepest sympathies.  What a beautiful boat . . . I hate to see that happen to it.  Hopefully someone will pick her up and fix her and get her back to pristine!

Dude that's ***!!!! I have to ask, why didn't or could insurance cover it? That seems like a clean cut case for a claim.

Insurance might have covered it.........   Or, he might not have insurance.
