All Right Chesapeake . . . . this is much better and it's in Pennsyl-tucky too. Looks like a really clean boat.

This might be the one!!!!!

Re: New lead
 

I wasn't going to jinx it by posting, but I saw this this morning also. I wonder why they don't fix it and get more $. Flywheels aren't that expensive, are they? Anyway, I sent some questions in to the seller.

Auction ends in 3 days, so we'll see if I 'join the club'.

Re: New lead
 

I think this boat wants to be mine.

The location is listed in the ad as being 60mi. away. But I did some sleuthing and it's being consigned by a dealer I recognized. The schweet surprise is that it's actually at their lot, which is only 25 mins. away. I'm going to look at it Friday night. If the hull is as good as it looks, she will be mine. Mine! Mu-ahahahahahaha!! (in my best mad scientist laugh).

Re: New lead
 

I like the sounds of this one. I think you two were ment to be together. ;) ;D

Re: New lead
 

Chesapeake 724, I'll be in Quakertown late Fri afternoon early evening about 5 min. from that dealer. What time are you going? I bought my used Steplift from them 4 years ago. Where do you live, I live in Doylestown. Good Luck Crusher

Re: New lead
 

Crusher,

I live in West Chester and work in Collegeville. I'm trying to get out of work early to make it to the dealer by 3:30, 4:00 at the latest. I got something to get back home for and also want to try and beat some of the traffic. Highway Marine said they were selling it 'locally' as well as eBay, so if the boat checks out I'll try and stake my claim with a deposit. I won't sleep until Sunday if I have to watch the auction clock and bid at the last possible second. With the eBay ad, it's nice to know how low they'll go. Is it safe to assume that since you didn'tadvise me to run like hell away from the dealer that your experience with them was OK?

If I catch you, great. But I appreciate the offer nonetheless. :)

Will

Re: New lead
 

I wonder why a "rebuilt" motor, with only 20 hours on it, would need a new flywheel? ???

But for 2840, if the hull is in decent shape, you could repower with a new carbed 150 2 stroke and use the rebuild for a mooring anchor. ;D

Good luck, CPK! :)

Re: New lead
 

Just curious . . . why does any engine need a new flywheel?
(Mashed teeth from the starter? or is it a balance issue? )

And what are the symptoms of a broken flywheel?

Re: New lead
 

Mj and I were talking about this today and my first guess was also the mashed teeth from a starter related problem.
The flywheel was probably off the original powerhead(if new PH) or the starter problem developed after the rebuild. Still a good deal.
