I've seen this boat on Boat Trader, it was owned by a marine mechanic and supposedly is in good condition. It doesn't deserve a chain saw

Something is not right (besides the 1.75 twin disc ) its to nice of a boat

I agree the 1.75-1 isn't right. It's been advertised locally for over a year. I've never seen the boat in person. Seems like a great opportunity for someone, which is why I posted it here. The name in the Craig's list add is different than the Boat Trader ad. I would go check it out myself, but I'm recuperating from minor surgery earlier this week.

I don't belive its a twin disc also from the photo I will bet its a 1 to 1 BW velvet drive .

If those pics are of the of the same boat on Craigslist then (1) it got "totaled" in a wreck and (2) no way is that a 1.75-1 drive. It looks in great shape, inside and out. Whoever wants to take a chainsaw to it is (1) wasting a great boat and losing a lot of money (2) crazy.

I do think Prowlerfish and Randy are correct about the 1:1 Almost looks identical to my old setup which was a 1:1 Chuck, I hope everything turned out OK with your surgery and wish you a speedy recovery

why is this vessel being parted out? it looks like a very good boat from the pictures.

I tried to contact the owner to get some parts doors/trim but he never replied. I also saw it for sale and am wondering if he is actually parting it out or just wants someone to "save" it from being parted out.
