I'm in the central upper bay right out of the bodkin creek. It's a straight shot across the bay to rock hall. We frequent harborshack alot. It's a small pier but good food and we usually will take a boat ride Friday night they have live music and not as much boat traffic. On the weekends we will definitely hit up Joel's. there can be alot of people there and definitely a bunch of nice boats to look at. Also frequent alot of the resturants in middle river, riverwatch and sunset cove (the old wild goose) is a good time. I haven't been north too much I heard the nauti goose is a good time. When you finally pick up a new tub we will definitely have to meet up.

Keep us posted on your search!

Bidding on this 260, same one I sent an email to on Craigslist and never got a response, in the email I advised I was looking to spend between $12Kand $14K. Wonder what it will bring, book value is not kind to the 260.

Also emailed this person and he called me, new 496 with approx 20 hrs on it, claims it was flushed and well taken care of but it has been run in salt water as it's kept in a Boattel in Sea Isle City NJ. Has a trailer but it hasn't seen the road since 2008. Can't get there until probably end of next week to look at it. $15K or best offer means he will take less, just not sure if wife will like the cockpit area of an Outlaw and having to crawl into the cabin.

This 260 just showed up on ebay and looks sharp, really like the engine, just it's 1,000 miles away, I'm still high bidder on the other 260 but reserve is not met. It's less than 200 miles away.

Thats a nice boat looks impeccably clean!!!!

Man the second 260 looks super clean and has a hp 500 replica in it. Have you emailed them both to see what they're willing to take for them? More times then not they like to do dealings outside of eBay to save the money. Just a thought. Are you getting the itch even though its going to snow this evening?

Still the High bidder on the first 260, definitley have the itch, can't wait to hear the rumble out of the pipes when you fire her up, then feel the sunshine out on the water and the wind in your face. Have had boats and bikes all my life, 22 different motorcycles and 5 different boats. Went a little over 11K as my high bid but it's still sitiing at $10,100 and reserve not met, guessing his reserve is around 15K, he had it on Craigslist for $16,500. Good luck with that.

It just shot past 12K, which I went to $12,277, I'm all done on that one, I'll bid on the 2nd one but probably cost $1K to have it trucked here, don't want to tow that far with the Pathfinder, he probably has a reserve past what I can spend with what he has done in improvements.

More than likely the seller bidding it up!!! Go to your max and wait for it to end, if you were the second highest bidder chances are you will get some kind of a message or response from the seller!!!

I think your right that he had a friend run it up, I'm sitting tight and see if it goes or not, I can always call him afterwards to see what he would take offline as he did post a phone number.
