Yeah, then that's really odd.

By any chance, were they optioned much differently (electronics, trailer, other options)?

I just made an edit: The "C" Series F350s are 100% fine (supposedly) other than the flywheel issue. The "C" Series doesn't have the exhaust manifold issue and the retainer ring on the crank was redesigned to have a chamfered edge on the ends.

Nice work; looks good. I bet you could sell the leftover material.

I was thinking of a service like this: https://phojoe.com/photo_restoration/

Nice story. I can't help you, but I have to believe there is software that can fix it. I am sure there is hope!

330 vs 360 could be more about layout, available features and options than about size. I would think the 360 is much bigger than the 330 in terms of volume. Regarding the F350s, as I understand it the "C" Series are 100% fine other than the flywheel, which isn't a big deal. That being said, if...

Hi, In which city/town is the yacht club located? (just curious). Thx

That's a damn nice boat. The Sea-Dek ain't my thing, though. I would be very curious as to how a insurance would be handled. I wonder if some sort of "approval" can be garnered. I always find the HP issue/question interesting. There are 21 foot bass boats with 350 HP, so why would 900 on a...

The 2017 238 is a really nice boat!

Hi, I don't disagree with the emotion & perception and like I said, a nice classic around $50k, sure, I get that. As far as going back in time, I get that, but the reality (for me) is "that feeling" will last about two rides. :) Now, if I can be my 18 year old self with a my 17 year old GF...

I can tell you that when I damaged a "G" on my 2018 306, they sent me a replacement for free. Send them a photo of your boat and the Marlin and ask for a "Y".

Hi, Correct, I was referring to cars. To be fair, I am sure people look at us boaters and think the same thing. Ditto for RVs, bikes, etc. I get it that everyone has their thing, but I just don't get the "values" on the muscle cars. While the same could be said for Objects d' Art, I can see...

For me, it doesn't matter how nice of a restoration was done. I just don't see the value. They are still boxes of rocks.

I don't get the boat prices and I REALLY don't get the muscle car prices. Virtually every muscle car rides and drives like a box of rocks. Every now and then I will watch an auction on TV and I just can't believe what people pay for "collector cars". I sort of get the true classics (pre-WW2...

YUP! I don't disagree that it's crazy, but there are many people for whom $50k-$100k per year is nothing but another bill.

Yes, especially if the boat was 100% wood free. I think a perfect example of a starting boat would be a mid-2000s Hydra-sports Vector. Solid hull, proven design, great layout, etc.

Funny you should write that... I was just thinking that at the stratospheric new boat prices (even with a significant discount), it may now be the situation that refitting older boats time has come. There is show called Florida Dream Boat. On the show, they do complete renovations and...

Regarding the craziness of the pricing.... The largest transfer of wealth via inheritance in history started a few years ago. The beneficiaries of that transfer are middle aged to late 60s or early 70s and have children/grandchildren. They want to spend time with the kids and enjoy life. Many...

^^at least at AC, you have a chance to win enough to buy the boat!!!!
