WELCRAFT Aruba

This is a 1987 Welcraft Aruba mid size cruiser. It has a good hull, outdrive and trailer. The boat has been setting for 6 years and the engine water jackets are stopped up and the engine overheats. There are no cracks or water in the oil. I bought it to fix up but just don't have the time. I have run the engine and it has good oil pressure,(note picture of oil on dipstick) the water just doesn't circulate around the center cylinders. I have got it ready to pull out. Someone with mechanical ability can make this a great little boat to spend weekends on. It has a fresh water system, alcohol stove, 12/120 volt fridge, new am/fm/cd radio with all new speakers. The boat has a bathroom but will need a porta pottie. The engine (350) and outdrive are Mercruiser. All interior upholstery is good and carpet is too. It has a table that can be removed and stored. Front berth is very roomy too. The manifolds are almost new too. The cockpit seats will need replacing too. I have listed this now 3 times and hope someone decides to do the right classifieds board purchase keep your commitment.MAKE NO MISTAKE, THIS BOAT WILL NEED A NEW SHORT BLOCK OR A GOOD USED ENGINE. IT CAN BE YOURS IF YOU ARE WILLING TO PUT SOME WORK IN HER. IF YOU HAVE NO OR NEGATIVE BID HISTORY YOU MUST CONTACT ME FIRST BEFORE BIDDING. IF YOU DON'T I WILL CANCEL YOUR BID. THIS IS A NO RESERVE AUCTION. BOAT HAS TITLE, TRAILER DOES NOT, BUT DOES HAVE NEW LIGHTSTHANKS FOR LOOKING
