Took in a stray this afternoon ...
« on: January 19, 2011, 05:09:15 PM »
'72 V163 Antique gold & sand. Holsclaw roller trailer. Have boat title & trailer registration. Needs a serious bath & the interior's purty rough but otherwise it's not in all that bad a shape. Rubrail & trim is all there, windshield too. S'posed to have a newer fuel tank but haven't tried to climb up under there to see yet.

One of two things are going to happen: (1) I have a buddy who just looked at it & may be interested or (2) It will be parted out. Sorry guys I got first dibs on the footballs. But other than that everythings up for grabs.

I'll let y'all know soon if it'll be parted out.

Reckon what I like best are the aesthetically pleasing fwd trolling motor mount & anchor line guide. Which btw cleverly doubles as a spare trailer roller ...

In all honesty she isn't all that bad. Exterior wise that is. Lil soggy on the inside I'd reckon but the transom is intact. No stress cracks and/or band aids?

Plus has some nice fishing options ...

Not sure which cover you're referring to Ross. Aren't really any 'hatches' on this boat. Can you be more specific?

Oh maybe there isnt one. I'm looking for the one that flips up between the windshield and onto the deck. See picI'm thinking I may just patch this one with some glass mat at least temporarily. Not sure I could make it look too good however, at least when it comes to color matching it, but heck, it doesnt match now, so what have I got to lose?

Okay here we go boys & girls. Beth has signed off on this gig so it's all mine now. Whoopee. '71 V163, antique gold & sand. Stringers rotten as is the transom more than likely. But it's not broken or scabbed anywhere. Was powered by 90 crossflow. Interior is shot but all interior trim is salvagable.

'Less'n somebody's interested this one'll likely wind up under the sawsall & be placed at the curb.

Any last requests?

Check the main CGOA board.  Someone there is interested!

Tbh I'd rather slit my throat than chop up a Glastron. I'll find it a home. Guy up in Tampa's interested in the whole package. That'd be cool.

For what it's worth I have not removed anything from the boat other than a little of the rot & dirt. Trimwise it's all there.  Would prefer to sell it in one piece. All offers accepted.
