Re: Auction boat
Doesnt appear to be any signs of damage according to photos.. Although description says damage?
Have to inspect i guess.

Re: Auction boat
you can see a crease in the RHS. it took a few looks to see it but I opened all the photos on the link and you can make it out. just had a look on the AFANT FB page as well. if you scroll down you will find details of the accident and see a picture of the Prado and the boat (albeit with cover on)

Re: Auction boat
Obvisouly depends on extent of damage...?
Saw a similar one go for 5 grand recently.

Re: Auction boat

in the top photo i thought it was just the sticker but thats the crease.

Re: Auction boat
I went to pickles a couple of years ago to watch a boat from one of the Arnhem Barra Camps, it had been underwater for about 6 months or more, bare hull that needed a lot of polishing before repainting. I think that went for about 8 grand from memory?

Re: Auction boat
Looks like it creased right on the seal deck line. Make a great creek boat if the hull goes sub 5k.
Secondhand 150 hp and trailer and you have great rig for 15-16k
