Sounds like a true project boat.

The boat is free but has no engines. You want the engines, that will be an extra $15,000. It is over priced.

Maybe a little expensive for needing to possibly do some engine work and then reinstall them, but from the pictures, the boat doesn't look to be in particularly bad shape. I'm seeing other MT44s listed for $60 - 90k, so for the right person, $15k plus even another $20k in work to get it all back together, working and cleaned up would still be a decent deal and cheaper than buying a complete one. Just need someone with the time and skills to get this one back together.
