"skimatar" for sale...


well ill give you guys a brief low down on the skimi, the plus points- original glass windsheild, all the chrome is there and dash items, hull is sound, he does have the original seats i believe, all the uphulstery has been redone but is iffy, the trailer is alluminum and original, the motor is an olds and has been rebuilt- how that all worked out is up to the new owner, i was gonna gut it and put a ls1 in it, light and guranteed 400hp,
the neg points- the front seats are out of a motor home, the the boat has sat outside for an unrecorded amount of time thus causing the glitter to come through so he's painted a clear over it, questionable floor and stringer rott?

Auke, that one is listed on an Iowa craigslist.

it's tempting because it's in better (useable) shape than mine, BUT, it will eventually need all the same things mine does, and I know I wouldn't be happy just to run it in "good" shape. hopefully who ever gets it will take good care of their "skimatar". I think if I didn't have one, I'd go get it!

Bummer...did you get more pictures from the owner at the time? Curious what state it's in...hard to tell from those grainy craigslist pics.

"SKIMATAR". If you can't say it or spell it...you don't deserve to own it!

I certainly understand the Time and Money thing Eric,  I sure would like to have another Scimitar project, just like that, but me too, just don't have the time and Money.

well it was spoken for but i fell out on it, ran out of money and time, so i let the seller keep the $1000.00 deposit in good faith, so who ever decides to buy it should remind the seller there was a grand put down on it and he should take that into consideration, good luck guys!!!!
