Cr=0&gts=SSE-AD-17013520&gtsSaleId=SSE-AD-17013520&gtsViewType=showcase&rankingType=showcase There are a number of cracks mainly on top deck of hull, the kitchenette cabinets are broken so needs replacement and has been removed, the engine has been removed and fully dissembled with some parts machined and will need to be rebuilt with complete rebuild kit from US for around 1K The Mercruiser 5.7L 350mpi marine engine seems to have little wear for its age with crank linished, heads surfaced and block honed though was pulled down because it wasn't marinised and sat around while the repairs started. As you can see from the stern drive has had little water use with no evident corrison or damage which is a Mercruiser Bravo 3 Duo prop so it’s the top of the range stern drive with no corrosion on it You can see from photos you will need the required skills or know the right people to get this done so only serious buyers Holding deposit of 25% will need to be paid by winning bidder at end of auction with balance payment within 14 days. Note: This auction sale is for boat only, the trailer is NOT included as boat of this size is usually in water or pontoon and trailer value is $16k but maybe available for sale if boat meets reserve The trailer is NOT included as this is a * Boat Only* sale and trailer most likely isn’t available for sale given these size boats are usually in the water so you will need to make arrangements at end of auction to transport it.
