OK so this would be fun- good crabbing boat with a bit of poke.

Ok this would be fun till the noise beat your eardrums to death and you might need a welder now and again.

Want to catch a crab thief who uses the shallows to escape or doing it off a jetski. I think it would surprise a thief who tried to outrun you. Bit of a sleeper.

Love the paintjob!!!

Thats an old donk. Not even a cross flow which came in around the late 70's - I think.

Really common conversion for small old ski boats and loads of bellhousings and dog gears, cams about so it would have been easy install. All parts still avaliable from Rolco and others. If the boat was that old it would have shaken to bits by now you would think

Same motor as I had in a cortina 20 plus years ago. Lots of metal in them and can be made to produce HP cheaply and easily.

But damn flash being the 2V, it was the fast one.

Yep pretty rare. Made the wheezy but very torquey 250 a great but of kit.

Good spot for the all round light, Iwould never thought of that.

Just had a close look. Is that a fibreglass sump or just one painted with epoxy paint? . O lot of the marine conversions had a shallower sump with a side drain hole bung.

I just want to own it for a month or 2 and have some fun. I don't think it will be a stunning performer but still be a bit of fun.

[cormorant]

Yeah it is the name of a oat dealership down here. They paint their name on all the trailers they sell.
