That's the icing on the POP Yachts cake.
If there was ever any doubt as to the lack of boating knowledge displayed their team of 'brokers' (tele-marketers) that ad should clear that doubt.

Great pics too. The freshwater flush is definitely a selling point.

That company walks a fine line between business and scam when I bought the Baja the owner I purchased from used them it was the worst buying experience I ever had. They leave boats in Boat Trader they don't have and the list goes on. In my recent search for a boat every time I saw anything listed by them I didn't even bother opening the add no matter how desirable it was to me.

That Gem was originally listed for $50,000. Just needs a Little Elbow Grease.

It's always been a mystery to me that so many knowledgeable boaters with great boats for sale, (not that this Cig is one of them), have used them over the years. There's one thing they seem to have in common though, and it's having way too steep asking prices initially. As a buyer though, it's a good way to locate a boat and get a good start by seeing a decent amount of good photos, and two friends of mine, that have found their boats this 'Popcorn Yachts way', have located the owners of the boats directly and cut Popcorn Yachts out of their deals.
