Scam. This boat had it's drives stolen off it if I remember correctly. Was for sale around $130K (less drives) I think according to the legit ad.

Edit: This looks like the real ad:

Yep, the trailer would need new tires after being kicked to death.

So when this post was going around early last week - I emailed the seller - got this today.......???

Hi there and thank you for your question.

The boat has been inspected and serviced 2 weeks ago. The boat is in like new condition. There are no damages, scratches or any other problems found.

Also please note that there is a misprint on the boat trader add, I live in Carson City, NV. I hope this is not a problem for you because for my asking price I will offer free delivery anywhere in US.

This boat has been used only in fresh water, it was used only in Lake Tahoe here in Nevada, also there is no loan on the boat, the boat has a clear title.

Please let me know if you can visit me in Carson City, or you need the boat to be delivered. You have more pictures here:

What is also interesting is that the red Fountain in the picture from the link I believe is a NV boat.....I think.

Just thought it was interesting - still a scam?

Ask for directions to where it is and when can you come see it. Tell them your brother lives in Carson city and could come by shortly. See what the next email says.
