got my not so shiny new to me 1987 Bayliner in the water for the
first time last night... I have a leak between the transom & hull. boat
mechanic says the motor has to be pulled to put a new gasket on it.
he gives me a price of 300-400. is this a reasonable price?

$3100 for the boast , $80 to dewinterize... $358 in title/tax fees,
now another $400 for the leak... arrrrgggghhh!


Oy - you will soon learn that BOAT stands for Bring Over Another
Thousand or Break Out Another Thousand.

BOAT can also mean Boat Operator Accredited Training but that's only
in Canada there they use hockey pucks for fuel.

See if I'm not right - this boat will cost you just about $3,100 by
the time the season is over. :)


yeah, but not every season, right?
