    Owner indicated that the boat has been to Skater to access the damage. I have the hull number if anyone wants to call Peter. Boat needs extensive core work. Bring an open checkbook. There were threads on this boat(OSO) that have been mysteriously deleted.

    I called pete at skater and he told me the boat basically sank on the trailer for a year and a half and that. He told to original owner that the boat needs all new core and 2 fuel tanks. then the original owner sold it to this guy for 15k and now is selling it for 40k pete told me to run from this boat because it's gonna cost 30k+ to get back up right

    He needs to keep dropping if he wants to sell it. His deceptive ad and willingness to hide the truth about this boat doesn't help along with the hokey bunk trailer with 10" wheels, LOL...At least Peter at Skater knows the boat and can inform any interested parties if they are smart enough to call him.

    Don't they still make the tanks the same way? And the coating doesn't last more than 8-10 years!
