------Have had some good response from this little add,but at this time the boat is still actively for sale.Since add was posted,I have had the scratches buffed,and they came completly out.
------Went and bought the other DONZI,so now I own three.One too many.So I am motivated,IE:price negotiable.There are no other fresh water only Corsicans out there for sale,and certainly none that have had as much restoration work done.The rarest of the rare!!!!!!!!!........ol red...Bill S

Phillip,

-------Did alot of the work myself and still have WAY more than that in the boat.Also gave the trailer a complete resto(except for the wheels).Have you had any chrome plating done lately?Have you gone completly through a Volvo 250 drive?$800 in gas tank clean-up bills alone.If you are interested just give me a call!...........ol red!

I really didn't think I was dreaming Madpoodle, I almost bought this boat so I know what it sold for, I just didn't realise how much Red put in it. the original owner was willing to take $7,500 and a couple of grand in it would have put it at $9,500
considering that I don't think what I asked was so out of line Poodle.
I passed on the boat when I found out Red had made a offer on the boat before me, I e-mailed Red and told him the owner offered me the boat for $7,500 but I would step back and let him contact the owner and see if he could complete the deal he started before I got in the middl

What I now know is the boat needed a new interior, outdrive rebuild, gas tank cleaning, chrome plating etc, so Olered must mave had to put about 5K into this boat

Phillip,

-----No offence taken at all.Stuff really adds up fast.Might have done more myself and saved a few sheckels but was hot to go to Sarasota and subbed some of the stuff out.Had forgotten that you had talked to Sam as well.Nice guy with just a huge amount of money now that his company sold.And I mean really huge...........ol red!

The new owner of this Corsican is Me!!

Hopefully she'll be here before Winnipesaukee freezes! Anyone game for a real cold water cruise?

yippie

We'll be trailering her, although home will be the big lake.
We look forward to meeting all of you.

Winnipesaukee must have ice by now. I have been
watching ice coming in and out with the tide here
on the Merrimack River since last week! Maybe we'll get an early spring! Good luck with your
new ride.
