Hydrostream, Merc 200

The boat was in my storage locker when the locker two doors down went up

in flames. The fire never reached the Vegas, but heat, soot and ash

did. The heat came from above. I had a plastic cockpit cover on the

boat and it melted completely. Thats what you see on a steering wheel,

the gunnels, and some of the seating.The engine is a 200 hp, 2.4 liter Mercury from the 90s. It has a

lightweight cover and low-water pick up. It probably only had about an

hour on it since it had been serviced with carb cleaning, gearcase oil,

and a compression check.I havent started the motor as the battery is dead. However the small

battery I had with me would slowly turn the motor over so I know its

not locked up. Also, the hydraulic steering is working fine, along with

the trim and tilt.The trailer looks to be in good shape as it was before the fire. Both

tires were still full of air and the grease on the hubs looks brand new.The hull seems to have suffered no obvious damage. The rubber in the small rub rail has melted in places. The interior is, of course, ruined, however everything is there and

available for patterns. The gauges, shifter and the steering

wheel...ruined.The hydraulic steering works fine, so does the trim. The factory fuel cell is fine.The deck received the brunt of the ash and soot. I was surprised when I

took a gasoline rag and wiped it a bit to find out its not damaged, at

least the part I wiped. However, when I looked again, days later, I

found blistering, warping and even a six inch crack (picture).Selling as is, where is. I have clear Texas title for the boat, motor and trailer.. These will

all need to be transferred at the time the new owner takes possession.Can be seen anytime, behind fence, at Sportsman Convenience Store, Bell Plain Ave, Brownwood, TXThanks
