Not free enough. It's probably a negative value boat, meaning that it
will cost more to fix than it is worth. There are a lot of negative
value boats out there, but that one is particularly suspect.

You forgot to mention how much it will cost him to dispose of the boat
if he buys it and then realizes it is not worth fixing it.

It is common to see people trying to giving away boats just so they
won't have pay the trash man.
