Baja

Relisting due to a non paying classifieds boarder. Please don't bid if you don't have any intention of buying.I have decided to sell my 2001 Baja 40 Outlaw project boat. I purchased this boat with the intentions of blocking off the center engine opening and dropping a couple of motors in going with a twin engine setup. I was going to have the interior redone and enjoy the boat thinking that I bought a good solid boat.The first issue I discovered, luckily a small one, was the plastic anchor storage drains were broken causing water to run down between the hull and into the core. I drilled some small holes until I got dry wood and then let it dry out. Since the boat came from a very dry area it didn't do much damage luckily. I refilled the small holes with thickened epoxy resin after it was good and dry. The next problemI discovered was rot in the transom from the center exhaust leaking. As I dug further I found wet areas around every transom penetration, it wasn't rotted out in those areas but was black from where it had definitely seen water. I have approximately 90% of the transom ripped out.I don't mind doing small repairs but this is not the type of work that I like doing and after losing a lot of sleep over trying to decide what to do I have finally decided that it needs to go. I really like the looks of this boat and the amount of room that it offers, I wanted to use it as a performance cruiser but it's now more than I want to take on. I have a lot of the boat apart and will be selling a lot of parts but would like to make most of it available to the winning bidder first as I would like to see the boat go to someone who will restore it.

Trailer has less than 2 year old tires. I had it delivered from California and the transport driver said that it pulled great but brakes, which are electric over hydraulic, aren't working.Thank you for looking.I have clear title for the trailer but still have a small lien on the boat.
