That looks like a bad wreck.
I wouldn't have wanted to be in that one.
Looks like someone or everyone ended up in the water.
Hopefully no casualties

I'm guessing it fell off a trailer at speed - hope the person driving behind is OK!

Wow....bad deal for sure. The console and motor (parts) are still worth something....

I don't know any of the particulars on this. The photo was sent to me by a friend at work who has a home on Madeline Island.

I wouldn't mind getting the zee-leg as or the console if the pric ed were right.

A little wax will buff that right out.

I see a lot of good salvagable stuff there:

Engine block
Cables
trim unit?
Mid-section?
steering wheel
rub rail

Chop it up and make a couple small floating docks.

Let me at it! :)

Good news, it still floats.
