Anybody into boats?

[turbojoe]

I have far too many things going at one time. I'll be selling off a lot of things soon and one of them is this Dumas Utility boat. It's on E-Bay right now if you're interested.http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3132048461&ssPageName=ADME:B:LC:US:1

Yeah, I know but I just didn't know what it was really worth so an auction was the only way to go. Sorry.
What's wrong with going through E-Bay? You're dealing with me. Not them. I have to pay all the selling fees. You just have to bid and pay if you win. You have no real contact with them. If you win and let me know that you saw this on E-Zone I'll find something extra to include just because you're a "Zoner".

Just not my cup of tea. Call me old fashoned. Tom

[turbojoe]

Well...........if I get a good enough offer here I'll sell it and close the auction on E-Bay.

What are you asking for it? Workmanship looks good. Is all the hardware still there? Got more pictures? Looks like the sides are slab wood. I thought these were planked hulls like the full scale. Can't tell from the photo. What all is included. Tom

Believe me the sides are planked. I spent hours sanding them. :D
Everything that came with it is still there. All of the deck fittings. The rudder, prop and stuffing box. And the fiberglass and resin. I had put a motor on the box but I don't recall where it came from as I built this about 2 years ago when I was out of work recovering from surgery.

I could put a decent radio together if you need one. It wouldn't be latest model stuff but would be functional.

With the prices I've seen on completely finished boats upwards of $600.00 I'm thinking somewhere in the $250.00 range plus shipping. There was a LOT of labor to get it to this point.

Joe

P.S. Almost forgot. Any specific pictures you would like?

I had no idea those things cost that much. It just looked like a neat thing to maybe have. Sorry, but my budget won't allow anything like that right now, plus the pond near me is full of weeds and sticks and unseen hazards. It would be a shame to put a beautifull thing like that in there. Nice work, and good luck selling it. Tom
