Wish I knew this thread existed!!! Had I known you would all be seeing an Ericson 29 with it's motor sitting in two feet of water/oil/diesel in the middle of her cabin floor. Sad.

Pearson 10M. CO says "Interior will be a bit of a project. But no dirty work (grinding, glassing, etc.)" and "We could arrange for you to keep it here (covered) and begin your work. I can work closely with you if you'd like" It had been listed for $15500, reduced to $12000.

Re: Post the Worst "For Sale" Picture You've Seen.

At least you can sit on the heads unlike this one on UK Ebay. I hesitate to use the word "heads", bog might be more appropriate. Shame, might have been a nice little steel yacht once upon a time.

Re: Post the Worst "For Sale" Picture You've Seen.

Hooo So MANY LUXURY items on this thread! ! !
I'd buy ony of those beauties any day of the week

ABOUT MY BOAT,

The for sale pics on ebay showed a GREEN white hull

and THIS is the Green White boat that I bought on eBay UK !
(after I outbid 9 bidders!) these were the pics except the one where Phil is on deck, it was the same one but without him. There was an extra one showing the stern.

Ah okay. Now, you can rebuild the interior exactly the way you want. That ought to occupy your time for a year.

Might want to rent a place to store the innered while you are making decisions.

Ripped the all thing, was just mush, all stringers desintegrated into green slime. Boat was never finished, and was built in 1982. I got some vids of it but before you click on the link on my sig. you better SIT DOWN

Re: Post the Worst "For Sale" Picture You've Seen.

At least the pictures made it pretty clear what condition the boat was in. To me the "worst" pictures are the ones that don't give you any clue at all what it is that you might (or might not) be buying.
