I have just listed this boat on e-bay. The description that I posted is reproduced below. You can see pictures of it at:

This is not a boat for just anybody. This is the hull, console base, and ceiling boards of the much-desired Rib-Side Outrage that was the inaugural offering of the Outrage series of Boston Whalers. Although it was my dream to fully restore this boat, so far all I have been able to do is have a professional painter sand, fill, sand, high-build, sand, prime and paint the hull with three coats of Awl-grip two-part paint in Oyster White. The paint job alone was $2500. From the original manufacturer of the rubrail and track, I have obtained a brand new track and brand new red rubrail (that are not yet installed, but are included as part of this project). I will also include the console base (also Awl-gripped), the original teak console (really only suitable as a pattern from which to build a new console), the original ceiling boards, and a 1994 150 HP Yamaha 20" outboard engine mounted on an aluminum engine mount. It comes with a tandem-wheeled trailer that I purchased to haul the boat from Virginia Beach, VA to Charleston, SC. There are new tires and lights on the trailer, and they have never been in the water.

So far, I have invested in this boat:
$2000 purchase price of boat
$2500 professional paint
$3500 outboard engine

I am trying to sell this boat so that I can repower my new-to-me 210 Ventura.

Thanks,
