Its a shame what some people will do to a boat. If you want a centersteer fishing boat, Sell the powerboat and buy one! Dont wreck a great boat like that.

Yeah but what did they realy do to it is dash cut out could it be gutted now and brought back That is the ? if dash is intact this would be a steal for a say Resto mod boat we do it to cars why not boats ? Look at all the parts that come with it . if I didnt have 5 boats right now and wasnt bidding on 6th I would look at something like this.

Hippie I just got off phone with guy really nows what he has is going to send me some pic of top of boat said they did a awsome job when they built it it has new composite floor and stringers . Well try and post pics tmo as thats when hes sending them.

Did they do the core?

I guess I cut up my vking so, to each is own.

[Rut311969]

Yes according to him they did it was all done at a respectable shop he said you cant tell it has been redone inless you no what boat should look like .

A 20 footer, what is/was that then, a Vulture?

[Hippie459MN]

Yes, It was/is a Vulture. By the looks of the pictures there they cut the deck all up so dash and all is gone.

Chet, But your not cutting your deck and dash out and yours is gonna be cool race boat.

I'm sure for what it cost to make that into a full center console boat it would have been cheaper to sell that and buy a different boat but I guess to each his own. Just a shame they cut up a boat like that to make it into something it was never intended to be.

While it would be a unique CC, I realyy don't think it would make a practical fishing platform. No storage, gunnels too low and too wide and limited load capacity. A tragic waste of a classic 'stream.

[Hippie459MN]

My thoughts exactly. Thats what I was trying to spit out. LoL

[Rut311969]

Alright guy finally sent pics I take it all back. They killed this poor stream r.i.p I would post pics but dont want you guys crying on your key boards and blowing up your computers. They cut it from inside concave of bow the whole bow and dash r gone you would need doner boat with good top shell or one smoked in the back end . Bummer !!! Inless you had a shell in you yard full of snow . Sorry Hippie couldnt resist .
