Could be a great deal. Depending on what you pay for it. I got enough projects to take care of right now!

I'd be all over it also, but like you say, too many projects going already. Rite now its 3 Mercedes, a Sea Ray cuddy, and going to pick up the F-32 in the spring. No more Sea Swirl was what made room for the Trojan.

Good starter home in St. Croix too. For when after you leave the Mrs. and you don't want to be found.

It's a shame that a "cabin cruiser" is used, to describe the F36.

Cabin Cruiser? Is that like tri-cabin? FDMY?

F-36 and Cabin Cruiser in the same sentance is quite the stretch. I suppose also is all of our ambitions to call it a Sportfisherman as well.

Volvo TAMD 60B: 140-230HP, 6-cylinder, direct-injected 4-stroke turbo diesel engine made from 1978 to 1983, max rpm 2800

Twin Disc MG-502 Transmissions - good trannies.

That looks like (from the name and info on the salon doors) an old Charter boat that has had a lot of time and fish caught on her. Would make a nice diesel project. Too bad she is so far from me.

Somebody is gonna get this thing for around about half of what one of those engines is worth by the looks of it.

Larry - those Volvos would turn your 20x20 props! Pull the trigger!

Do I need a state license (more than my USCG Captains license) to navigate in the Chesapeake?

Someone should do an engine swap and put it back on the market with thier old engines in it. Basically free diesels for the taking. Just your time. Polish and clean that old dog up and you'd definately get your money back.
