RJ -if the 27 fever you inquired about had lightning graphics, it probably was mine!
I called them to get details about "my boat" and he told me that if I was interested, he would have to contact the owner. I told him that I was the owner, that I had never contracted the boat with him, nor ever even contacted him, and that it wasn't for sale, so please take it off traderonline. He hung up on me at that point. - I still see it advertised on traderonline by beavboats, from time to time!

FWIW, I got a reply from Yachtworld. I had sent them an e-mail about the Beaver, and a link to this thread. Here's the reply:
Those of you that have had problems with this clown might want to sent YW a note - maybe we can get this clown kicked off there and save a fellow boater some frustration.

I figure he lists boats he doesn't have, because he has one similar in size, power, etc. Then when someone calls about one he doesn't have, he'll say sorry, that one is sold, but I do have a such and such for sale. Just the old bait and switch. I'm sure he generates more calls that way, but I don't understand why he would generate calls when he doesn't want to answer questions. Strange situation.
