Don't get me wrong its up to 29K and if it checks out still a deal but lot of things on that boat that are just no go for me. Bottom paint (at least its white), motor cover missing, no trailer, etc. Be interesting to see where it ends up

I just sent him a bank wire in the amount of $18,500. My fingers are crossed that I can get this deal done.

Yes. I spoke with the current owner on the phone and his story seems like it is going to check out. I have been shopping for a long time and this is my chance.
