Avon 5.4 Offshore Oil $9500 OBO

Avon SR 5.4, 18'(5.4 meter) boat w/ 60hp Mercury Big Foot four-stroke motor and trailer. HIN: AVB 92106 B595. Trailer tongue seems to be rusted, cracked but it could easily be re-welded. The boat has been used but it is great shape. A heavy duty boat such as this would last a lifetime with civilian use.

This is a great little boat! It may be cold out now but you will be ready for spring with this fun, little craft. Very unique and can be used in shallow water or out on the lake. The sponsons make this a boat that can handle very large waves. It is an ex-US Navy boat made for extreme heavy-duty work. The sponsons (inflatable tubes) are made for coming along side of ships, piers and other harsh marine evironments. Please email me for additional photos and specs.

Thanks,
Tom

Yeah-it'd be around the same money to import a decent one from the UK at that price.

Why?

Why would you guys put what he paid for it or harass him? If he wants to sell it and some one wants to buy it leave it at that. But don't sabotage his ability to do so for no good reason.

You'd think he would put some air in the tubes and take his own photos to use for the ad.
