Re: Boat Brokerage
Steve, honestly, I would SERIOUSLY give Jimmy a call at Grand Sport Marine. They have 2 locations, and I'm sure at this time of year, there are many people that are lookin to get into a boat that can't afford a new one. I really feel that you'll be happy with their services once you make the move.

Re: Boat Brokerage
Steve don't worry it seems real bad right now but I went through it a few years ago and it gets better. As long as you come out of it with your pride and dignity you'll be fine. Mine thought she wiped me out and stuck me real bad , and she did but 2 years later and the big debt is paid off, another Harley is in the garage and a new truck in the driveway, and alot good friends to hang with. She went through all the money, filled bankruptcy, got remarried and is still a misserable biotch.

Good choice Steve, you won't be sorry. The guys at Grand Sports will take good care of you. You will be surprised at how easy and painless the sale will go. This is only a temporary set back and you will have another boat before you know it.
By the way. Make sure that you pick up a new ''Cigarette'' brochure while you are there. It will come in handy when shopping for the ''rebound boat''...

Re: Boat Brokerage
Steve, It'll hurt for a little while, but when it's all over you'll have a better piece of mind. Everything happens for a reason, and the reason for this, is maybe God wants you to look for a better woman, and when you find her, then you both can go shopping for the ultimate boat that you can enjoy together.
My first wife hated my race car, hated my gun collection, complained every time I said I was going hunting, and a "boat" was totally out of the question. A couple years before we got divorced, friends of ours had snowmobiles, so she wanted me to get a snowmobile. Great !!! I wanted to buy the liquid cooled factory race sled, but OH NO it was the sissy girly sled that she wanted. Would'nt let me buy the one that I wanted, even tho all she did was sit in the back behind me and hold on. When we got divorced, it was in december, and she was persistant about me not having the sled, since she knew how much I liked riding it. So, she got the sled.
The next time I had a visitation day with my daughter, we went to the dealer, and I bought the race sled that I always wanted, and told my daughter not to tell mommy. My little daughter told my EX everything that I did, and I knew it.
Come spring, I took my daughter with me and I bought a hot rod jet boat. Every time I had my visitation, my daughter and her friends would play in the boat and pretent that they were at the lake in it. Took alot of pics that my daughter showed my ex. She was sizzling mad.
You'll prevail in the end Steve, it just takes some time.

I agree with Frankie. All of this is Gods way of telling you that he wants you to have a Cigarette.
