2012 CHAPARRAL 246 SSI, PROJECT BOATS - PUBLIC WHOLESALE EVENT At Premier Boating Center, we're trying something we've never done before. We've gathered a handful of boats we're calling our "Project Boats." These units have been in our inventory for a while and, for one reason or another, just haven't made it back to the water. Rather than continuing to hold onto them, we're opening them up to the public in a rare AS-IS, wholesale-style sale. These boats: >May not run in their current condition >May need repairs or refurbishment >Are priced accordingly - no inspections, no prep, no warranty They're ideal for someone who's mechanically inclined, looking for a fixer-upper, or in need of a platform for a custom build. If you've been looking for a project boat to bring back to life - this is your chance. Offered to the public AS IS - working or not. First come, first served.
