The funny thing is, talking with him you'd never know we were even remotely talking about the same boat (re: price, condition, work needed, etc). I was more interested in the boat he was describing. Then again, he doesn't have the boated listed for sale or even certain he wants to sell it.

With that said, I really did like the guy, we shot the **** for quite a while. We're talking again later in the week. Cool guy, just not sure he has a firm grasp on the condition and value of the boat! Hell, he didn't even know one of the hatches is busted and the boat is wide open and has standing water in the cabin.

Unless you were moving to a much nicer AT you are smart keeping your bullet! That's a really nice one! Hopefully I will get to hang out on the island with you again next year!
