Hey Guys,

I've spotted a pretty nice looking F233 that is for sale, in Rockport, Texas.  The asking price is $6000.  You can inquire at 361-729-0677.

These pix aren't too good, some weather was passing over.  If anyone is interested, I'll get better photos with better light.

Nice lookin F233.....

Is it a '72?  '71?  (Based on windshield design/coaming?)

Any idea how the floor is?  Looks to be original......maybe?

I didn't ask the guy what year it is, but the windshield, coaming, trim, glovebox, dash, etc, are identical to mine.

The floor is not exactly original.  The center piece over the gas tank is not hinged on mine, making me think it's been replaced.  He may have just modified the original.  It looks like it's been covered with some kind of nonskid, that is now in death throes.

He said it's been dipped in saltwater a few times, but 99 percent of the time it was in fresh water.  The town painted on the hull (Round Rock) is over 200 miles from saltwater.

I didn't climb inside it.
