Randy your boat is a perfect example.......You are asking the same money you paid for that boat when you bought it two seasons ago! Do you really believe the boat did not lose value? Your boat has history and it took ASG two solid years to sell it (to you). It is a very nice boat but my guess is you will own it all winter.
I know what the offers are on the 04-05-06-07 TG's and they are no where near what the asking prices are. In this economy/ at the end of the season everyone is looking for a deal and if the boat has been listed in the OSO ads for 6-12 months with 3,000 or more page views the boat isn't selling because it is overpriced! I wouldn't out anyone on OSO but you guys would cry if you have heard what some of these boats really change hands for (700/NXT boats included). Hint they are no where near the original asking price........
You definitely don't want me to post what I end up paying for a boat since your dreams of owning a TG for free for two seasons will definitely be over........

my question is how do you know what some of these people are paying for there boats, For one they are lying to you. and two do you just go around asking people what they pay for boats. WOW thats balls
My boat perfect example - Its not about what i paid for it, that is a non issue, its about what it worth.
If i paid $100,000 for it that does not make it worth 90,000 just because i got a good deal, and if i hold on to it for the winter who cares, someone is just missing out on running all winter in FL
I have only had the boat a year and it was far from free, upgraded the engines, added a custom full cover, fixed the headsets, fixed the vhf radio, 2 new amps, i have over 20k in that boat - you dont know anything
Find a boat cleaner, better, faster than mine for cheaper
Buy a boat and get on the water and stop wasting people time on the internet

ASG had a hard time selling that boat because of the story behind it. If I recall correctly Tres fixed it and it is perfect. I spoke with Alexander a few years ago when it was for sale but chose to pass due to pricing issues. While it is a nice boat it will always be chased by that hull repair.

Randy you need better pics. I would guess the photos in your add dont do your boat justice. Got some on the water or on the trailer? Maybe borrow clays girls for added effect
