Cheap to purchase, but looks like alot of time and effort will be needed to repair.

There's not much interest in boats like that. Simon couldn't give his old AJ boat away - it's heading for the tip now.

I see it is around our area, so have sent owner a message, see if any of it is salvagable

Don't build his hopes up to much, I'm planing on bidding for the trailer and whatever else it is worth pulling off.
If others are planing on bidding looking for spares let me know and we can sort it out between us rather than competing. Even do this if you're after the trailer. as there might be some other stuff I'd like and it losses its attractiveness if the price is driven up.

Hi All,
I would be careful about the one near Paynesville, the guy has just replied to my message re having a look and said he will be away till Wednesday, so I can't have a look at it.

Gary - I have seen the boat - would be a big effort to repair it but it has beams etc... probably a few things of use!

I bought it. I'm building new hulls anyway. As mentioned above its a cheap trailer and maybe a mast etc but I'm not holding my breath.
