    sure does not look like a good place to moor a boat.

    2x 5.7 litre gasoline engines......You could just drive it from one fuel dock to another.

    Owning a boat is like taking a cold shower with the lights off with one arm tied behind your back trying to take the shower curtain off and put it back on again while your wife flushes money down the toilet as fast as she can.

    That thing looks like it could be a disaster (and I have seen plenty) You would need to have a qualified person check it out or be prepared for some big bills seeing how it is powered by two V8's, Doesn't leave much room for getting to anything else that would need regular maintenance.

    I think the guy would have a much better chance of selling it if it was on a trailer or moored somewhere other than a river bank.

    Thinking about it I couldn't imagine a easier way to throw money away than owning something like that.

    A former mate of mine (may he rest in peace) had a 51 ft Sea lion that he used to float around The Mediterranean on for a couple of years with a few Thais girls in tow which he changed around regularly.

    He reckoned that the Champagne to run the girls was a fraction of the cost it was for the fuel to drive the boat.

    An empty bucket to pour your money into I reckon with the novelty wearing off in next to no time.

    The 2 happiest days of your life... The day you buy a boat and the day you sell it... Been there... The price also sounds a bit high for a 20 year old, American made cruiser...

    I could have lived on a boat, but it would have had to be the size of the Queen Mary with my divorce rate, today I would only have a lifeboat left.

    2.5 million baht is about 70 000 USD. There is a 28ft'er going in New York for 20k with 200 hour old volvo pentas. Just for some perspective.

    1990 Chris-Craft 284 Amerosport For Sale In City Island, NY: Express - BoatTrader.com

    Understand it would be expensive to get one into Thailand and registered (for a Farang anyway...)

    Would the local girls not go near him?
