This just makes me sad.....

Seriously,
There were only 14 to begin with, then you chopped it up, made it heavier, made it illegal to trailer easily, and beat it silly with an ugly stick.... and now, you want to unleash it onto the world... with a ridiculous price tag to boot...http://www.boats.com/listing/gallery...%3Dfalse&pic=5

Frankenstein's monster! What was it before he attached a Hippos head to a Greyhounds body?

GOOD GOD!!! WHY! WHY!

I would have made an offer if the boat was stock...

Sometimes reality is a harsh mistress...

Why are you so upset? Isn't this boat a piece of property belonging to this guy and not yours? Must we all do what is assumed by the taste police on this forum?

My comments were made partially in jest. Of course the owner has every right to do what he wants to his boat. In this case what he considered improvements in my opinion reduced the value of the boat considerably. I am looking for an unmolested version of the boat... and because only 14 were made they don't come on the market often.

Raps, I'm starting to like it, theres a couple of coolers/esky/chilly bins for beverages, some nice shady area, even a sink/prep area in the cockpit, she just needs a couple of stripes & a styling "flash" to regenerate a speedy streamlined appearance & at US $39,900 pretty good value for a 32'er.......... thats about 12000 $AUS right?

What strikes me is that I see no possibility there (at least not a safe one) for the crew to reach the foredeck...

Frosty, you are parked next to a gougeon 32? If you ever see the owner, let him know if he ever wants to sell, that you know of a buyer
