So need to give a big thank you to shawndoggy for the time he spent to go and assess this boat. Had a buddy that was pretty serious about it and planned on taking a road trip Thursday to pick it up. I

Those are for real Americans!     This was the next video on my Youtube, holy cow!   I'd want one even without a boat.

How many hours are on it? I couldnt find it on the site which always makes me nervous.

I sent an email. Will let you know. Its a bit far for me otherwise I'd head to the bank and then go look at it.

On the back of the boat it reads "Hawg'n the water" LOL

Razorbacks fan?

That was my first thought as well.

If this boat was local I would absolutely consider buying it. Even if the motor was gone, swap a new one in for $5k and flip it for a good profit.

There's something a lot more wrong with that thing than is evident at first glance. Has to be. Dealers don't firesale that type of stuff. It takes 30 seconds to look on onlyinboards to see how much they actually go for.

Not Craigslist, but a nice price if the boat is in good shape, $17,554 for a '05 23 LSV:

The ad already says sold. That was a steal if it is in reasonable operating condition at all.

Up until today, it wasn't marked sold, either the email sent by Arick reminded them mark it sold or someone here bought it, so who here bought to flip it, lol?! If I would have had a bit more on hand, I would have bought it to flip for sure.

Being it's red and in Arkansas, they were probably Razorback fans.

I didnt even know they would throw a titan 3 tower on a 08 either.

They phased it out by then? I know you could get them on 05 and 06... i looked at yours for sale and texted with you a bit too, but ended up getting an 05 for 10k less, knock on wood that purchase should complete today.

Probably not a scam. Unless the scam artist actually knows what an Air Sling is.

Sometimes the scam is that they steal a legit ad and then dump the price on it.

And a quick google search with the first few words of the ad shows that it has been posted everywhere

I reverse image searched the picture and it comes up in craigslist listings all over the place so I am guessing scam, its coming up from Ohio and Texas, etc.

If that boat is 25k someone should buy it. Average price for that year is about 36k nationwide, with some going for 40.

Lots of project stuff this time of year:

$5,500 for a response needing some fiberglass work... http://kalamazoo.craigslist.org/boa/5411158162.html

Open bow Euro F3 / Sunsetter with 454: http://fortwayne.craigslist.org/boa/5383464653.html I think martinarcher on the forum has a similar boat. This looks VERY well kept.

Euro f3 with bad motor for 2k (I should buy and part it out for 1k) http://flint.craigslist.org/boa/5397395283.html

A PERFECT american skier with stargazer for $6500 http://grandrapids.craigslist.org/boa/5397080631.html

Some interesting ones there--that American Skier is beautiful!

But that Response is super odd. '94 with '97 hull'. What does that mean? FL registration and phone number for a water ski rental place in Naples--on the ocean. Looks like either a scam or a high hour salt boat.

Ooh here is something unique... A brand new power wedge. Hmm, now to convince my wife I need this for my new to me 05 VLX:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Malibu-Wakesetter-Power-Wedge-Brand-New-Still-Unwrapped-/151960328668?hash=item23618a99dc:g:-VUAAOSwLN5WlpRW&vxp=mtr

Power Wedge is the greatest idea that always ends up the biggest PITA at some point in time. ha

Just got my boat so of course surfing craigslist for no reason as usual:

Boats that could be deals:

Check out all the crazy upgrades on this 1998 sunsetter (power wedge, GPS PP, Stereo, etc): http://inlandempire.craigslist.org/boa/5407226601.html

Another 98 for only 12k with a funky wrap and hammerhead: http://phoenix.craigslist.org/nph/boa/5419098437.html

2005 sunscape lsv for 10k? Scam? http://hattiesburg.craigslist.org/boa/5421211717.html

Clean 04 XTi for 19k: http://tampa.craigslist.org/hdo/boa/5372180168.html

And in the budget category:

Closed bow echelon EFI for 9k: http://seattle.craigslist.org/est/boa/5427755608.html

2004 Response Lxi for 10k looks like a scam: http://bakersfield.craigslist.org/boa/5416109982.html

94 Echelon for 6500? http://texoma.craigslist.org/bod/5420100748.html
