Thanks, as they say "must see to appreciate"! She has been a labor of love and a gas to run, but now she needs a new home.

Nope, not sold already. Within 4 hours of putting it on Craig's list some A-hole scammer was contacting me with some kind of PayPal scam. Decided to drop it off CL and reconsider my approach. I want to sell the boat, but I don't want to be subjected to that kind of crap! Thanks for asking though.

Ignor the scammers. The real deal might happen if you leave it on.
i love playing with those guys. I have two checks here from them, both made out to "Heywood Jablomey" they even send them overnight. It's fun and cheap entertainment. I'll post pictures when I get to my office.
i saw a nice little Porsche on cl the other day. Got contacted by a woman, or at least that what they said they were. Said she got the car in a divorce settlement. I said I wanted to see the car and they said meet me at Hooters. I said OK. They said to email when I get there. An hour later I emailed them and said I was the good looking guy in the red shirt. They said they were the cute one with big breasts, I said, I see you. They said I was crazy, I agreed.

Understand the BS goes with the positives of the CL marketplace...
There are people on there selling legit $Million dollar boats so it is clearly working for the boat market!
