Re: Got a call today.......

See, this is a classic example of someone who doesn't need to be on the water, much less in a performance boat. I'm sure his driving and safety skills are non existent judging by the condition of the boat. I can only imagine what those motors would say if they could talk.

Sorry to see that. I know it has to absolutely infuriate you to see your former pride and joy being abused and neglected.

On a positive note. The hit he will take if and when he sells it will be tremendous compared to what he probably paid. So big that he probably will not be able to get another one, thank god.

Re: Got a call today.......

Guy must have more money than brains with no appreciation for upkeep. Your right, this would be a good time to see if you could make a deal and get it back to what a boat should look like. Looks like it was a great boat before he tried to destroy it.
