I was wondering how long it would be before you said something about the paint, haha!

BTW, I really like the boat too. While I'm sure it's in great condition and probably a good value as it doesn't appear to need much, the boat apparently is a little over priced... If it wasn't, it would have sold a long time ago... PERIOD. Same is true of many other nice boats out there that have been on the market for a looooooong time.

Don't feel the need to get involved in the price argument but I've seen this boat in person and liked the paint.

I think the only problem with this boat like a lot of them is that it is HERE. If it was up on East coast, or in FL. It would be sold by now at asking price.

Good point, but it's only a $3k tow away.

It's really not uncommon these days for boats to go for about 2/3 of their asking price.

Possibly... It's not something I was orriginally planning on doing as I hate towing the boat in that area, but it would be fun to take the boat around the city. If the weather looks really nice we may end up going.
