I have been given the task of getting rid of my wife's grandfathers old aluminum boat.
It is a 1988 Almar - 17ft Runabout.
It has a 1996 90hp Johnson (prop) on the back with a 9.9 mercury kicker of same era. (both run well)
Galvanized RoadRunner trailer w/spare - good shape
Plus old cannon downriggers, pot puller, rod holder, river anchor etc.
The issue : The boat is rotten through at the waterline. I ripped all the foam and took it to a boat welder who told me fixing it would cost me way too much and that the oxidation is cancer isnt easy to get rid of.
I want to sell this thing and get it out of my driveway. Anybody have any thoughts what older motors are going for these days? or any thoughts on my best course of action?
