Phil, it looks exactly like my boat, except mine has no windshield right now.

Anyone near Bradenton, FL looked at this boat? I've always liked this color combo. Question about the trailer though. In a past thread, there was talk about the bunks ending at the end of the trailer frame. This boat would need to be moved a considerable distance forward on this trailer to do that. Anyone who travels to a lot of Donzi gatherings would maybe need to scrap this trailer? Starting at $4,500 looks like it could make someone a great entry boat into the Donzi family.

Yeah...I agree about the trailer. I think it needs to be a tandem, with longer bunks.

It looks like a nice package, it has been repowered notice the center line valve covers. I will end up at a pretty good price, I have looked at the photos a few times. I would not mind having myself.

------Noticed right away that the trailer was substandard. It will not do the job unless going only a block or two to the ramp. Didnt want to diss the boat as the Minx looks OK. Wish the fella had a few more pics.............Bill S

olredalert you are being kind! The trailer is a joke it needs to be under a 16 or 18 the bunks look like diving boards, but the boat looks to be decent. He should have posted the engine spec, is a late model.

Crappy trailer or not, I still can't believe that there isn't even one bid in on that boat. It looks to be a nice Minx from what you can see in the pictures.

I sent the e-bayer an e-mail asking a couple of questions and he hasn't responded. I want to go look at it. Hopefully he will respond shortly.

I talked to the guy with the minx. He was very weary of talking about the condition of the boat. Any questions regarding the structural integrity he avoided like the plague. I know where the boat is and I am going to look at it tommorrow. I will post more after I see it. I don't have an appointment with him and he didn't want anyone to see it before the auction ended. I plan on just stopping in to see it.

CDMA looked at this boat a year ago for me. Guy was dead set on $10,500 then... Chris said to pass... so i did.

Not see it before the auction ended? What kind of deal is that? That's like being told you have to buy a used car before you can test drive it. Thanks Bruzilla for the warning!

Team Hula Girl did you ever do your visit to check this Minx out? I was wondering what the condition was out of curiousity.

As of today I have not looked at the boat in person. I have spoken to a few people that have seen the boat. Through my gathering of info, I decided not to go out of my way to pursue the minx. I do plan on stopping by the shop where the boat is when I get the chance to assess the condition. It may be of some value for other potential buyers.
I will post more info and pics if possible after I do. The Minx appears to be a project boat that is not cost condusive to restore.

If anyone wants to know where the boat is located just send me an e-mail or I will post the info.
