    The usual disclaimer applies, I don't know the seller and have no connection to this item. Aside from thinking this could be a heck of a good deal.

    That's a cool boat. If it wasn't a continent away, I'd drop the 500 on it lickety-split.

    This new ship here is fitted according to the reported increase of knowledge among mankind. Namely, she is cumbered end to end with bells and trumpets and clocks and wires. It has been told to me she can call voices out of the air or the waters to con the ship while her crew sleep. But sleep though lightly. It has not yet been told to me that the sea has ceased to be the sea.--Rudyard Kipling

    I'll second your cool assessment, I'm really tempted myself. I can't help but wonder if the seller made a typo on the price... I don't think this one will last long.

    A4s and single-lever controls are a nightmare. (the transmission/clutch requires significant force)

    A cool boat, though, very.

    I wonder if the owner was doing light log salvage work with it?
