sold 2.9 m tinney $275

[rayke1938]

2.9 long 1.4 beam. I brought it off ebay for $252 and had to drive to Buccan to pick it up si this is a bargain for site members only as I will be advertising it in the weekend shopper for $400.

The hull os sound and definatly has no leaks. I have just filled it with water to check.

The keel which is riveted on has some corrosion but it is not structual. One section has been repaired with tin and this should be replaced with alluminium.I will probably do this before sale.

The paint is very weathered but the hull does not show any signs or abuse.

Has no dints or weld repairs and looks to have only had a motor on it a couple of times.

Dont know what brand it is as it has no manufactures plate or HIN on it.

PM or 32068583

The interior being water tested.

This would be ideal for a car topper or for an electric powered for Hinze or Baroon etc.

It is easily handled by one person I loaded and unloaded it onto the roof rack of my hilux by myself.

Has no safety gear etc but I could probably dig up an old anchor and rope to go with it.

if only my mum let me in my bank account lol

I would be interested but i dont like the look of that tin. So i will say no.

[rayke1938]

I will replace the tin on the keel tomorrow and post photo of repair. I thought it would be more honest to show it warts and all.

[Fisher_90]

Ok thanks. Do you know how much the paint would cost to paint it?

[rayke1938]

I wouldnt really bother. I would just give it a blast with a gerni to remove the gunk and loose paint.

If you wanted to paint it I reckon to just use ordinary enamel probably $50 would do the lot but if you wanted to do it in epoxy that would be a lot more.

[Fisher_90]

Ok... How are you planning on replacing the tin?

[Feral]

Gee, you have expect a few blemishes and flaws for $275.

You sound more like the sort of bloke who really would only be happy with a new boat - which is fine, horses for courses and all that - go buy a new hull, cost you about $1000 for that size.

Drill out the rivets and manufacture a new sectoin out of marine grade ally and rivet it back in. Just realised missed one photo of the interior. [img size=500]http://www.australianfishing.com.au/media/kunena/attachments/legacy/images/P1010623_AFO-f9c736b4ec25b72a7da4e83fa8c5b2da.jpg

You will pay $500 for this in the yards.

I know everyone gets sick of a `Woulda`, but honestly mate if it wasn`t for my rates bill, I woulda bought this off you for sure.

Brings back good memories of my old boat. It was a $h!t heap, but it was my $h!t heap and i caught a tonna fish and crabs in it. [img size=314]http://www.australianfishing.com.au/media/kunena/attachments/legacy/images/106_0605.JPG

That would make a great (western) river rat Ray. Very tempting. I'll give it some more thought.

Are you sure you want to get rid of it though ? - It'd hold a lot of live shrimp!

[polyphonic]

At the moment Im trying to convince the boss about the advantages of an elecy motor. Once I have done this then I may look at something similar for the dams. That way I can use the elec between the two boats.

[faulked]

i have some free enamel house paint too any one who wants it it would look great on this old girl im tooo lazy too paint mine i like fishing not cleaning and polishing :laugh:
