Title: Are you kidding me? $1500?
Post by: Greene on May 05, 2010, 10:10:42 PM
Check out the 19 on CL.
Search Annapolis MD for Com-Pac.  1984 for that price?

Might be too good to be true.  The seller is short on email and details, but claims to have two people already on their way this morning.  I'll be right behind them if its still available this afternoon to check it out.

That is probably a good price. I've bought 19's for anywhere from a hundred bucks to four grand and sold them from 5-7K. Condition and conditions are the watchwords.

Well... no more contact from the seller.  I suspect someone got a great deal this morning!

Title: So why did the stern bulkhead pull away?
Post by: Craig Weis on May 07, 2010, 09:46:58 AM
I'd be investigating just why the stern bulkhead pulled away.
Either the hull 'bent' from sitting in the cradle the wrong way with the wrong pressure on it.
Or maybe the hull' bent' from being in the slings,
Or the hull bunks on a trailer pushed here and there.
The weight of the boat sits on the trailer rollers. Not on the hull bunks.
I set my hull bunks so I can just about pull a rag out from between the hull bunks and the hull if I lean on the Hull and kind of rock her away from the hull bunk and pull the rag.

Or the plywood bulkhead came apart from being wet, or heated in the sun, or bashed in, or just plain old rotted away.

Give her a good look~see. Then buy it.

p.s. You asked..."have asked why so low" . Son you never say that if you want to own it! You say, "WHAT! For this? Come on your raping me. Look I gave her a look~see and I saw..." and start naming the objections. Make that seller feel like a piece of crud by selling the boat to you. Back up the hearse to the transom. You know. My family has to sail on his. Will they be safe? And keep hammering on. Low ball the offer, Jew him down. You can always come up. But it's harder then hell to come down after you blurt out an offer.
Have fun.
