Very Nice boat Dont find a lot of them that dont need to be completely torn down that still look that good.
But, you have the original 32 Year old tires on it? :screwy: Disastor in the making!
-
Now here's a guy who knows how to get things started... Pics right up front!
Welcome to the site! Love the the boat!

thanx guys im actually changing the tires this week.i only tow it a couple miles anyway so its really been my old school love thats kept them on they dont even make that size anymore.my boats name is bad intensions and ive had it for about 5 years.ive searched and searched for other rogers and this is the first time ive ran in too so many at once.i was friends with roger before he passed and i swear you should have seen the way he looked at this boat.i even have the t shirt they gave you when you first bought it.im the second owner and know every hour this thing has touched water.ill die with or in this boat.nice too see theres some others around sill,although ive never seen another bottom like mine yet.

Nice Rogers I have a 72 family owned since new. This was my Grandpas boat and now its my turn. I wonder if there is a group of Rogers owners that get together?

Welcome to the world of SCJB ;D
thanks bro.the one at big river is the only one i know of but i took mine to advantage boats one day because they have the original mold for it and the owner debbie really liked it.the first boat advantage built was based on the rogers hull and she has a newer advantage version.a friend of mine also had advantage build him one in 06,but its pretty modern with a newer jet and merc motor.but they asked me to bring mine to their regattea but i was going out of town.if theres this many around maybe its time?i dont really take mine on the lake on weekends too much but the river is always game on ;D

well the economy has caught up to us :-[i might have to sell my baby.i always said i never would and now i just might have to.anybody can email me offers at devillan10@yahoo.com.this is not a 4,000 dollar boat so if thats what your looking for this isnt the one.im looking for around 10 or best offer. im easy to deal with on pricing. its a must see boat and its in havasu.this boat has spent its whole life in a garage on the river only used a few hours a season.built in april 78.completely 100%original down to the plug wires.
-
theres a new price on this thing.one that doesnt say well i really dont want to sell it ;Dseriously though im going through a divorce so......................7,000 or best offer.dont be scared to throw a number at me.i need it gone.

The green one is nice looking too. It looks like it just came out of the 70's :thumbup:

im going to pull this thing from being sold.i cant let this boat go.i love it too much.

Very cool, my first boat was a 78 Rogers with a 454, paid $7,800 out the door. Never had a problem with it .
-
right on,there good boats.the only problems ive had are with the starter going out(normal)and i had one of the water hoses for the exhuast break out on the lake.so i think ive been pretty lucky so far for a 33 year old boat.knock on wood.rogers are my favorite by far.
