Ok guys so I'm wondering what I should do with the boat I have. It's a 1994 Monterey 206 with a cracked block that is sitting on a tandem axle inboard trailer (for some reason I don't know) I picked it up for so cheap I can probably still sell it for more than I got it for even with a cracked block. The boat has a 5.0 v8 with a Yamaha out drive. When I got the boat I bought it without being able to fully inspect it but able to hear it run. And it ran good so I took a chance and brought it home. I winternized the boat that night and didn't even think about the possibility of a cracked block so ran the boat on the hose, then drained the block turning the petcocks letting the water out... After that ran 4 gallons of antifreeze. Anyways a few months go by... Today I was going to begin working on the boat and after further inspect there is a pretty big obvious crack in the block. However it still runs good and there's no obvious oil mixing with water via inspecting dip stick.
I do not have time to replace the block. So I am left with a few options
1) sell the boat and trailer on CL for cheap and fully disclose the problem to who ever buys it( I was thinking around 2kish)
2) try to sell the inboard tandem trailer to someone and then maybe sell the boat(trailer for 1kish then boat for 1kish)
3) just start parting the boat out (time consuming and a don't want a boat sitting in my yard in pieces all year)
Thinking about it tho I have a Yamaha out drive, heads possibly, intake, exhaust manifolds, carb, starter, distributor, thunderbolt ignition system, battery, trim motor, ect) I could post all the parts on eBay.
Opinions?
