Look at that trailer, some extra C-channel re done leading to the hitch and steadying braces welded in for the hull bunks. Can't adjust those anymore. Did trailers come with two axles? I don't like how the standing rigging has been rolled up into a circle at the masthead. Kinks? What else is wrong? Baking if Florida, new floor? I don't know...never pay too much, just buy too soon. Probably sat in salt water? Why would one paint fiberglass unless it is half baked and faded away? Scuffed up.
Something doesn't look right. The Plexiglas hatch? Bet that rattles, too thin. The solid white bulkhead. Aren't these open and nice wood looking? Can't quite put my finger on it...just looking un loved. Kind of like that truck next to it.

I gotta agree with Skip, I think she has had a hard life, probably sat with water in the cabin for an extended period. That would explain the new cabin sole, painted bulkheads, and new cushions. Probably over priced at $5,000, but I can understand the guy pricing it there if he really did get new factory cushions and a new motor with zero hours. He would probably be better off listing the motor and boat separately, $1,250 for the motor, and $3,750 for the boat/trailer.

I'm with Bob on this one.  Any decent 23 with a trailer is easily worth the $5k, especially with the new outboard.  I'd certainly want to up close and personal with it before committing to a purchase though.

I hope somebody buys her and gives her a good home.
