The market is really screwed up right now. With insurance and gasoline, and the fact that lending agencies are not as easy to work with it is hard for everyone including dealers.

But there is hope!

True Story;

A buddy on LKN had a 1999 Baja 272 open bow! He owed $49,000 which put him about $10,000+ upside down in the boat. He wanted to sell it to upgrade, and had resigned the fact that he was going to have to put up money to sell it.

He is talking to a friend that just happens to mention that a buddy of his is looking for a family bow rider. My buddy sends him ONE (1) picture and the guy calls him. He asks a few questions about the boat and then asks what he will take for it.

He says he owes $49K and does not want to make anything on the boat and will take the payoff. SOLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This just happened about three weeks ago.

I could not believe it!!!

You just have to find that perfect buyer!

$50K or less? Hell, I can't even get rid of my little crownline for 5 grand. Had it on e-Bay for a week....tons of e-mails, phone calls, hassle, etc. 70+ people had it on their watch list. Not a bid. Had it in the local paper as well..same story. People asking me questions like I'm demanding top $$ for the boat. "Can you transport it to St. Louis?" Sure, I'll drive halfway across the country and back to deliver a $5K boat. Not to mention the part of the ad that said "No trailer." :rolleyes:
I'm about to give it away to someone at this point. (Just not to any of the people who sent me stupid e-mails through e-bay.) It's not money I want out of it...I just need to get rid of it to get a new boat. I'm out of space on my dock.
Done with my rant. I feel better now. :D
