Nice ... but ....

"... Insurance recovery, Vessel was submerged in a fresh water river, twin Detroit Diesel 671 TI motors and Northern lights genset were preserved but not run, this is a well worth project and the owner is motivated ...

not even run yet - could be trouble ...

You shouldn't walk away from a boat like that...................you should RUN

But, if anyone wants me to I can take a look at it for them. The boat yard is about a mile away from where I work

With all of the boats available for a good price in this economic downturn, I think I would pass on one like this.

It sank about a mile from where I keep my boats. I wouldn't call the New River "fresh water" I think it is brackish at best. It depends on how far up the river you are. About half the boats in lauderdale moor up the river, up to about 150ft.

Hey guys,

Couldn't ask for a cleaner bilge right?!!!!! LOL
