The hull is damaged on the bottom, at the bow entry, and on the starboard side. The port side is perfect, as is the topside and deck.

The 90 Merc EFI 4S motor damage is fairly minor. I was able to back off the island and run about 10 miles back to the marina without problems. The prop is dinged and may be bent, the cavitation plate does have some welding needed, and the skeg is bent slightly.

The galvanized Karavan Trailer is of course undamaged.

The boat was purchased new in late 2005 at our then Whaler dealer here in Sacramento, CA. We got busy and didn't use her as much as I had planned. The 31 hours is not a guess; it's real and on the hour meter. The motor appears to run fine, as stated.

I have all cushions, and a Mills cover in perfect shape. The cooler is cracked--that probably should be replaced. Not one scratch on the deck, console, or anywhere topside. Includes oil/water separator, trolling motor bracket on the starboard side of the transom, GPS antenna.

Title is clean and clear, however the insurance company many report the claim to DMV.

This is an excellent restoration project for a good glass/gelcoat worker, something I am not. I'll be glad to provide more details if required.
