    54' Classic MY 1986 in Stuart FL $99,000

    I saw this pop up this morning at this reduced price. Listing says one of the 8v92's has a blown head gasket. She looks fairly good otherwise. Says that the price is firm and she is as is at that number. I have NO connection to this boat!

    Blown head gasket?
    Hum; It is rare to see a fire ring on a Detroit just to blow with out some help,, like water in the lung.

    So, the diagnosis was not made by a real tech and i do not think it's going to be a cheap fix.
    At least a head and one liner kit.

    I agree. Add to that 4,000+ hours on the clocks on both.

    Nothing is more expensive than a cheap boat.

    In some of the photos, she looks very nice. Still, if one engine is damaged, the other one might not be far behind.

    If those are the Covington marinized engines, As we are learning, some hang-on parts are not available any more.

    Stabilized 54, Wow.
    Bow thruster.

    If I only had $200k, I could go broke on this one.

    Oh wait, just spent $35k on my 58 with even older engines and gear.
    And she's not back together yet.

    Logic??
    Heck, it's a boat, pretty one at that, there is no logic involved here..
