NM took a lot of boats in trade - didn't pay off the loans - re-sold unpaid boats - went out of business and ran with $. LOT of people had their boats taken away by banks.

Dano,
I was at the lot yesterday to look at another boat and I seen yours. At least they have that beautiful Cigarette covered in shrink wrap. It is a shame to see how some of the boats are uncovered or the wrap has torn.

I wish you well and hope that things will work out for you.

Blume,
Thanks bro!
Cgarrett,
Man thats a relief, the folks up at National (AHHHHHHH that word) Liquidators have been very helpful. After all this I certainly hope something goes right. We really like that damn boat even after all this chit.
Birdog,
How is your boat coming along?

Hmmm...I talked to them about their bidding process and they told me the bids ARE sealed and if you want a boat you better bid the max you want to pay because you won't have a chance to counter-offer if someone is higher. Maybe they were playing me...
