This could turn out to be a good deal, but I would want to have it checked real good. It looks to have a new prop. Its awfully shiny for a 6 year old boat with 465 hours.

It could be one of those deals where it goes through the roof the last few days.... I guess it all depends on who is shopping for a rz4 and how much coin they are willing to spend

[chpthril]

I also find it funny that there is no reserve on the auction.

[racerdave]

I think that is just something to put in the title to make people look. their is a definite method to losing on ebay to increase who is looking

[chpthril]

yeah, its not hard to get a false winning in at the last minute when your big ticket item with no reserve is not gonna bring the money. Bad part is, it costs the seller the ebay seller fees. Ending the auction early is also another way to avoid selling to the highest bidder if the its not high enough. The down side to these methods is when the boat shows back up a week later for sale by the same seller. Kinds runs off those that were interested the 1st go'round.

I live really close to this boat if anyone wants it checked out.

Is this the repaired version of the sunk one posted a while ago?

If it is, thats a pretty good repaid refurbishing job based on pics.

That would explain the no reserve.

Different trailer.

That would be a quick turnaround.

I spy a Teak platform on a RZ...

The interior doesn't look right. Also when did they ever have a teak platform. Something doesn't seem to add up.

I think that could easily be the sunken boat. Where do you see any pics in the sunken thread of the trailer that gives enough detail?

Note that the prop was bent on the sunken boat...

I think you could vaccuum a lot of sand in 2 months since the sunken boat thread. This time of year, you could do an awfully lot to get a sunken boat up to par.

There certainly were a fair number of 360 HP engines put in those boats, but still the 340 was more common, and both boats here had the 360 HP.

I am not sure that the teak means much of anything, hasn't that always been an option, especially back in 08?

And the seller feedback is only 93.8% positive, which is pretty well abysmal on Ebay. Just read the negative comments, and I would be scared to buy a boat from them. The negative feedback came from boats that had no title, or were misrepresented.

[chpthril]

To my knowledge, teak was never an option on the RZ, but, there was some being done custom by a couple of dealers and I think they were by the same company that was the OEM for Tige.

And I would be confident in saying that selling a repaired sunk boat without disclosing that fact....would be considered misrep'd auction

[racerdave]

I do not see the problem even if it is the drunken boat and it was done right I think the biggest problem would be the engine and electrical the hull doesn't know weather it is on the water or in it. like any thing else you buy without putting you hand on you are taking a huge risk
