Guy wants to trade me for my rock crawler. He said there is a crack in the "floor". I received some pics and it doesn't appear to have a floor. It looks like the stringers and hull are carpeted. If you guys need more pics let me know, I can post them. Also, just had a guy call on my Challenger and he told me that those Sanger "jet" hulls aren't that good. Enlighten me please?

Sanger made a good boat.
Motor box, not full stringer.
The floor is a structual part of the bottom.
They tend to crack at the drivers seat.

Unless your crawler is really only worth $4000.00.
Even still it's a Dodge, that's cool until you need to start working on it.

Is the crack at the driver seat bad or can I rock it?

It won't get better on its own.
In reality the floor should be replaced and the bottom fixed.
Now it's a $2500.00 - $3000.00 boat and thats if somebody is willing to take on a project.

I think I'm going to opt out. He said the floor was just replaced in his posting and my crawler is worth over $7000.
