Default Did another salvage today



This boat has been sunk for over a year. The owner walked away from the boat and his house. It is a 30 walkaround Proline. It had a pair of 225 Optimax. We got title to the boat. My boss wanted to clean it up and sell it but he decided to just give it to a buddy of his. But before he gave it up I got the motors. They are both seized but there are a lot of good parts on them.


It really is nasty. But I guess with a lot of powerwashing and a lot of On-Off it could be brought back.

Knowing PRO-LINE build quality, I would be very worried about wet foam and water being where it shouldn't be. They make a decent boat, but from what I have seen there fit and finish leaves a bit to be desired. Them gearcases off them OPTI's oughta bring a chunk of change by themselves as well as the trim and tilt units.
