I guess this is a good place to plug my boat?
www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/port-macquarie/motorboats-powerboats/9m-v8-sport-cruiser-port-macquarie-not-running-/1242994358Not running. V8 Bayliner Sunbridge Sport Cruiser 2651 (1990) previously valued at $30,000 when running, currently located at Port Macquarie Marina.
This is a 8-9m Sports Cruiser with a 5 year old V8 Murcruiser 350 repower crate motor. It is a Alpha leg sterndrive. The boat has a fully enclosed canopy and a swim/ fishing platform on the back. I have a quote to repair the motor for 4k including labour. I originally spent over 30k when I bought this boat (which is what it is insured for) however since it has been rarely used and been berthed in the water for the last couple of years the engine isn't starting. It turns over fine and is not seized.
I am in money trouble and can no longer afford to keep this boat or repair it so I am looking for someone who would like to buy and repair it, I am prepared to take $17,500 which should allow for any costs involved to bring it back to a great condition still having a purchase cost considerably lower than market value.
