you could probably offer 2K or $2,500 and get them and make your money back 3-4 fold after a year or so.

Interesting deal, if the trailers come with and most of them still have their valuable parts there is plenty of meat on the bones. Not a get rich quick deal though, LOTS of work and storage costs ahead for the guy that does buy those. Just moving all of them would be a monumental task.
Now on the other hand if the guy has already stripped the parts out and wants you to haul away his empty hulls, that is not an interesting deal.

LOL Yeah I'm into sea doo's for the fun and not the money. At 55 I only have a few more seasons left to enjoy the fun before I'm too old to ride.

Wow!! You would think we actually had a winter with snow and all out here and summer is quickly approaching by the horrendous asking price increases I have seen on the CL advertised SeaDoos ... hardly even worth a "LOL"

http://charlotte.craigslist.org/boa/5031665227.html For you old ski enthusiasts... Do you like old skis or are you just old... Anyway, is this thing really RARE?
No it's not rare and it did not come with a 720 since that engine was introduced five years later. It is in good shape and it does have "period correct" performance upgrades like a stainless steel pipe and aftermarket flame arrester. I think it would be cute to own and it sounds like he'd take three or four hundred bucks. I think he undervalued his trailer a bit as well. It should be worth 2-3 hundred anywhere.

nice 720
It's so old, he forgot how many CC's the engine had. Or maybe he bored another 200cc out of that poor old 580. We had one of these when I was little, fun ski to start on, but leaves you yearning for more. More power, more speed, more airtime... but it was great on gas and was pretty reliable (so long as you put oil in it)

Has anyone else seen this trend on Craigslist lately? http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/ank/boa/5038807296.html
This is the 3rd one I've seen in the last month, it would be nice if they would at least put it in the wanted section and not the - boats for sale section. They say they "desperately need" a boat....nooo you NEED food water and shelter, a boat is a luxury item. Then they throw in the picture of their kid to tug at heart strings. annoying :cuss:
I don't mind somebody trying to scoop up free stuff but put it in the right section, don't involve your kids, and don't tell us you need it.

Lololol, I've seen those around as well.
Lets get serious guys, I work long hours from 8-5 monday through friday and am away from my family for 40 hours a week. On the weekends I only have all day saturday and sunday to spend with them so my time is limited. It would be so nice if all of you would join together and raise enough money for me to get the La Ferrari I need tow the skis to the lake faster and spend more time with my family.
He's posting the family not to tug at your heart strings. He's pleading with you to lend him your boat, so he can get away from them and drink beer all day and get the ole' lady of his back for not working all week.
See, it's all in how you look at it.
