Looks like you saved it by about 3 pixels.

Still wainting to hear some verified info, but the Repo angle if it's true brings up more questions than answers.

From what I know you'd have to let the local authorities in on the fact and have all the correct documents and proof of default on a loan and ownership.

The other is since it was at a Marine Storage lot I would think that they would be able to go there during working hours and present the papers to them and take the boat.

Not cut the lock and do it in the dark or night or when no ones around. It's not like trying to do it at a private residence.

Something just doesn't seem on the up and up with this story.

If the boat was reposessed, it would be for lack of payment on a loan, correct? And would the bank or lender not put the boat back up for sale, almost instantly? And because this is such a high profile boat, would'nt the sale or advertisement of this boat sale be noticed by somebody here? OF COURSE IT WOULD! I call BS on the repo theory!!

Whoever hauled it is a small part of all this. Who got the most financial benefit??

I hope none of this is true, he seemed like a good guy from what you read on this site. Then again so did Fred, but I guess you never know. Welcome to the world of offshore boating.

It was Jeff who ran rampant with his maligned, ill-mannered sht-on-everyone attitude, so that he can steal business and line his pockets. Jeff went out of his way to make it a point to pizz on everyone who dared offer up an empty hitch to their OSO friends -- oh no, don't you dare, the expert's come to the rescue, everyone else is unworthy. Some of you will remember this period of time.

By the way, those of you who may have paid him for transport might be owed some money, after all a not-for-hire truck is driving for favors, not commercially.

Here's the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration website:

That and if it was a Repo the owner and insurance company would have immediately been contacted and no reward or press release would have been posted.

Personally if it was done by mistake and Jeff was given or told false information it was only a day of so before the Stolen Report showed up all over on Boating Sites nationwide.

I would have thought that would at the very least bought up a red flag in my mind. Since he's on most of these sites on a daily basis looking for loads it would have been impossible not to notice the "Card Shark" Reward posting. If I were duped in this fashion I know the first call I would make would be to the Authorities looking for the boat and giving them all the information that I had.

Maybe that was done and we'll see in the coming days hopefully it was just a horrible mistake. But this seems to have taken way too long for this to come out to expect a positive outcome as far as the boat was concerned.

The whole thing sounds fishy. If you repoed a boat and it was posted all over OSO huge reward and everyone was looking for it wouldn't you say something?
As for the situation showing up in the paper or on the 6:00 news, if the feds have a big investigation and they pick someone up in one state and extredite them to Texas who would contact the press? I think it would be kept quiet as there are probably more people connected they want to question. They may start looking into all of the other boats that have vanished without a trace over the past year or two trying to find a connection.
Hopefully it's all a big misunderstanting!
