Hi ICDEDPPL, I decided to sell the boat. I have it on consignment at the Lake In the Hills location with Mark should be able to sell the boat in no time. To get the money from it and invest it. Keep my current car till it goes kaput. Replace it with a full sized truck or SUV. In the next 5 years I want another boat, along with a boat lift. The boat I would like to get is a Baja Hammer. It will be eaiser to launch, retrieve and tow. Plus saving money on gas, storage and insurance. I'll keep it up at my parents lake house in Wisconsin. Which is on the Three Lakes Chain. I gre w up boating there it's not at all crowded, nice scenery, clean water, deep lakes, and only three no wake zones to deal with on the main part of the lakes. The biggest one is a 1/4 mile long. Which would be where the bridges are at. The boat would be ideal for it. It too would go the same speed as mu current boat 70mph. To also take it to the Whitefish chain of Lakes in MN once a year as well.

Jerry at Grand Sport all the way. I dragged my 24 Pantera's from upstate NY and he basically had it sold before I dropped it off. I did not have to make any phones calls to bank, buyer or anyone. Jerry took care of all with no hassles and got me a fair price for my boat. I'd say the biggest hurdle for selling a boat is owners who don't have a realistic price they are willing to accept. It's always a buyers market. Good luck.

Well thank you there. I have a person that was wanting to buy my boat. Anyways I went ahead and had Max at Grand Sport sell it to the guy. I'll be stopping by Grand Sport on Saturday to give them the title of my boat and trailer to the new owner. The new owner is from Morris. I wonder if he's on OSO at all.
