Thread: The Story Of The Cheap SCHIADA.

    About a year ago I was looking at a web-site on the net. I saw this ad for a 1976 Schiada 22f.t. Daycruiser.The only thing that caught my eye was the V-Drive. I e-mailed the guy asking for some pictures. He sent me a pile of pictures. We talked on the phone a couple times.
    About three months later I went to look at the boat. It was located in a little town outside of Philadelphia P.A.
    When I saw the boat and the Elliss trailer I thought Shit this thing is kinda cool. So he shows me this list of stuff done to the motor. 454 completly rebuilt Sqaure port heads, Edelbrock intake, Turbo-400 transmission with complete rebuild. Its really to bad the BOOB tossed the interior in the trash. The price was $5500.....
    At this point the wife is like NO WAY! I already had 4 boats. So I told the guy I have got to sell a boat.
    Fast forward one year and about 10 e-mails from the guy saying I will take LESS. He finally calls me and says look I will take $2500 for it.
    I still had not been able to sell a boat. I was like well how about $2250 and he said come and GET IT!!!!!!! http://www.plauder-smilies.com/jump.gif
    At the point of getting it home I really had no idea how much it was worth.
    Then I located this web site....I was like HOLY SHIT!!!! That guy wants that much for a SCHIADA http://www.plauder-smilies.com/lol2.gif

    Dan,
    It's hard to see in those little pictures, but is this the model that the gunales go back about 60% of the cock pit length then drop down in size?
    I always likes that one.
    What a great deal!!!!! congrats

    Gee, let me see here. Some guy back East has a boat with no interior made by Schiada. Made by who? Schiada doesn't sound like much to me I'll dump it cheap. Sounds resonable.
    West coast guy knows exactly what a Schiada is and can't believe you got such a ROCKIN deal. Once again jealousy rears it's ugly head. LOL
    I'll give you $5,000!!!!! :-)
    My blower motor will look great in that hull!
