The black stuff on the console on the ebay pics looks very much like it's been close to a fire.

Even if not, I reckon he's having a laugh at £15k and a reserve on top of that for a boat that's been standing a very long time, can't be seen running and that he has no history for.

Dont think it was finger print dust, we thought that at first ,it looked more like spray paint ,,suppose to possibly not make the white stand out on a dark night on some clandestine beach visit or to make it look like another boat for some reason .
if it was print dust it it dident rub off even after about 5 to 600 people and snotty nosed kids with ice creams had been climbing all over it during the day .
The other seized boats and vehicles there were spotless clean .,,Apart from the lifeboat in the foreground of the middle pic ,,that was just a charity case ,,lol
