Someone has to truck it somewhere where it can be fixed up, and presumably all the systems need replacement.
If the sails and rig are good, if the engine is good, it might be worth getting.
There must be hundreds of these stalled projects that have run out of lifetime.

At first I wasn't even going to post this one, but then I figured that someone might be interested in contacting the owner and getting a little more info on it. At that price and if the interior is gutted, I wouldn't give them half of what they are asking.

I absolutely agree. Also, I am constantly surprised by the people who post a boat for sale with one, none or ancient photos. None of the present state of it. I've often seen this for people asking, for what to me, is a significant price of over $40K.
