Looking For Info -- Louisville, KY -- 1987 Winner Chameleon 18Ft

[slinkeey]

Just wondering if anyone around here knows this guy...

http://louisville.craigslist.o....html

This boat is calling my name, but it is 6 hours from me. Anyone run into it by chance?

Thanks,
Jeff

[Joe Skeeter]

I have not seen it. Might be able to go and take a look if you like.

[slinkeey]

Thanks for your offer to take a peek..
I am going to pass on this boat...
I am going to hold out for a closer Winner. I just seams like it might not be the best idea to make a 12 hour round trip to get this when there is a chance of one showing up closer..

No problem.

[slinkeey]

He may be willing to meet me half way so my drive is not so far...

Up in the air... I am up in the air....

ive actually seen this boat quite a bit on nolin ,its in good condition i dunno how much lower he would go but id def try to offer him alil lower ,but of course if hes hauling it up to you he might not,,

[slinkeey]

That's cool.

I just want to make sure there are not any cracks in the transom and etc..
If the floor is solid.

[slinkeey]

I have been looking for a Chameleon that is in good shape...

What do you think? I woner how much a boat shipper would cost me... Only problem is that I don't see it in person before buying.. not the smartest thing..

[slinkeey]

It will cast me $350 to have it shipped if I let the shipper choose the date..

That is not too bad considering how much it would cose me in gas to go get it and etc..

What do you all think? Am I nuttts?

[slinkeey]

OK,

If anyone happens to be in that area and can look it, feel free to reply. I may possibly be able to pick it up next weekend. I just want to make sure it is worth the trip.

Thanks,
Jeff

[basshole45]

[Joe Skeeter]

[slinkeey]

[basshole45]

[slinkeey]

Well the Chameleon Dude from Louisville emailed me today just to let me know he still has it..

Here is what he wrote..

Well like I said I know nothing about any refinishing of the hull and the spots he spoke of are not large areas or anything, just the edge(s) of the runners have been sraped and repaired. Whom and when I do not know. I have never had any problems so I believe it is nothing to worry about and I have been out on some rough lakes getting beat all to hell on busy crowded lakes in early July.

I still have it. Wish you would come get it. Right now it is ridiculously cold and I am trying not to even open the garage door. Even keeping my truck outside right now cause I got a sofa in there right now in the way.</TD></TR></TABLE>

[Joe Skeeter]

Sounds to me he has it priced too high.

[slinkeey]

I wish he would come down on that price.. I would have thought that if it sat long enough he would lower it... hehehe

I guess I just sit back and see...

[slinkeey]

Joe,

You are right on the money.. Still for sale and still expensive for that year..

You would think if he is still trying to sell it the price would start dropping.. Maybe he figure if he sells it great, if not he will just use it another year...
