Avon Searider Project Boat ?
She will need new toobs and a hell of a lot of TLC but should go for very little.

geez, current bid is $120. I'm tempted to buy it just for the hell of it! Though lord knows I need a project boat like I need a hole in the head, but still...

I want an A frame like that for towing on my 5.4 SR. Probably worth $250 for that alone

Sad to see any boat in such sad shape.

Jeezuz... Looks like that is a post-Katrina special, or an "endo" off a trailer at 75mph.
