How do I get rid of a fiberglass boat

[djg0770 481]

Seriously. And I have the title too (for the boat, not the trailer).

 

Is there someone that will buy an older 6 cyl 2 cycle Mercury outboard? It's been stored indoors for the last 6-8 years. Any suggestions?

[tony357 386]

Will the trailer go down the road?

 

you can post it on craigs list or i know where you can take it to dispose of it costs 20.00 ft.

 

What year is the engine?

[Vlad G 345]

I know it is not the answer your are looking for, but have consider sinking it?

deep six...

[Shawnmoore81 623]

Where is it located and is it movable. I have a buddy with a boat junk yard.

[Maksim 1,504]

Can we shoot it?

 

What kind of boat? Pics?

[EX Carnival man 223]

I was in the same boat so to speak. I call the Salvation Army. They came by picked it up and I got a small tax write off.

[jgofnj 5]

Like AlexV said. There are many places that will take it as a donation, great tax write off, some even give you a free vacation for it.

[Duppie 73]

Can't help you but I can tell you what one enterprising boat owner did when faced with the same problem. My friend, a Pep Boys Manager 'arrived one morning to find a 20ft boat neatly sawed into 4 pieces and stacked in his outdoor used tire cage...stayed there for 2 years.

Dan I told you once, I'll tell you again Boat angels they will take anything

[SpecialK 193]

1) put all guns on boat

2) boat sinks

3) call it tragic

[halbautomatisch 60]

I can't imagine you would have trouble selling the motor if it's in working condition. Small used outboards are hard to come by, somebody will snatch it up if it's operational.

I have a buddy looking for a 12-14 footer. What is the condition of yours, trailer, pics? Where are you located?

[Secret Squirrel 3]

Step 1) Insure boat for massive amount

Step 2) ?????

Step 3) Profit

[Red Solo Cup 11]

There's one that seems to be abandoned behind the former NJSP barracks on route 130 in Cranbury/East Windsor.

It's been there for 2-3 years. Probably defaulted on the loan and the bank refused to come get it.

F_ck no. will not support that shit no matter what.

 

 

 

It's a 17 ft closed bow runabout from the 70's. The transom needs to be redone, the trailer will need 20 minutes worth of work (air in tires and pump new grease into the bearing buddies). The boat needs about 1 sq ft of minor fiberglass repair on the lower left side near the rear from where it hit some asphaltic macadam (it was a LONG day and at that point I kinda resolved that used boats were not for me). The hull is rated up to 135HP.

 

The motor is 115HP early 80's (not sure of size or age) Mercury with stainless prop, but no hydraulic trim but I have hydraulic trim from the previous 85 HP motor on the back of the boat above which was working when I laid it up...

 

All of the above is located in northern Passaic County. If you have a kid who wants a project, let me know... Like I said I have the title for the boat but not for the trailer.

 

PK90 - my luck I would set the freaking house on fire too.

 

SpecialK, VladG, tony357, my luck I would get sucked in by the sinking boat - or better yet it wouldn't sink.

 

 

ETA - need to get it off my property so I can sell my house and EFTS (escape from this state).

[Vlad G 345]

If escape from the state is the goal, I'd say put it in storage until that is done, then put you FID on it and give it a Viking burial. It would make you feel better about owning boats in general and be an appropriate sendoff for the FID.

A big open body of water, unmanned craft, a bunch of tannerite and a nice 308 with scope???

he'll miss, hit an airplane, they'll make an emergency landing, call the cops, he'll go to jail, and we'll buy all his guns, good idea!

[HINCHMAN 4]

If you want to sell the motor I will buy it.

put up some pics, I am sure a boat will sell fast for the right price...

[JLHockeyKnight 0]

Use it to test out Flex Seal.

Talk to me about the motor Hinchman, you're not too far away to come and take a look...

[blksheep 466]

We can use it for training!

I have a buddy looking for a 12-14 footer. What is the condition of yours, trailer, pics? Where are you located?

 

condition is "project boat - needs work". Trailer was homebuilt and I have no documentation which I now understand involves a PIA hassle in NJ. Pics? yeah, not putting pics of that POS on the internet so you guys can make fun of me - sorry, I'm not THAT much of a tool. Located in northern Passaic County.

[djg0770 481]

Can we shoot it?

 

What kind of boat? Pics?

 

Yup - you can shoot it if you figure out how to dispose of it after you shoot it. Though after it's all shot up this might be an option: http://www.thebagster.com/
