BowhunterRN Posted April 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2019 Thanks, yeah I have been in contact with him. It is a nice boat but he doesn’t have the title for the trailer and he’s also missing the flip up bench seat. The trailer is a deal breaker for me. I’ve been ticketed before for not having a trailer tag. Don’t want to go down that road again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Limitless Posted April 12, 2019 Report Share Posted April 12, 2019 In a number of states the trailer isn't titled, just registered. Heck in Alabama they dont even require a tag. Also the bench seat top missing is a solvable problem. If the engine is good and has good compression and the hull is solid with no soft spots, offer him your 10k.

NCTribute Posted April 12, 2019 Report Share Posted April 12, 2019 https://blog.suretysolutions.com/suretynews/how-to-get-a-north-carolina-bonded-title This is how you solve the trailer title issue, or you can title it as homemade. I inquired about this boat to, but I really want something that can go real skinny. If you can get this boat for $10k, you made out well. The guy offered to do a compression check, seemed easy to deal with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
