I am looking at purchasing a 1999 2858' Bayliner that sank in fresh
water in a clean northwest lake! I understand that i will probably have
to replace all wiring, instruments, interior and go through the motor. I
built boats for a living at a local factory so much of this i can do
myself. They are asking $3600 for the boat but i think i could get it
for around $2800. would this be a resonable deal or should i still walk
away from this boat like so many people would do?

man, there's too much to consider here. Like hows the engine etc. was
the boat retrieved and the the enging fluched out and 'pickeled?" or
jsut left full of watyer. If so, I'd say the engine is junk. I

It depends on how much you want to put into it. But Id say that buying
a submerged vessel and rebuilding and rebuilding it might be a bigger
task (esp. financially) then you wish to get involved with.
