My nice is definitely different than some peoples nice . Even the slightest scratch in the clear gel pizzes me of . My bike is an 08 and still looks showroom . How people treat their own stuff is their business how I choose to treat mine is my business . Guess whose will be more desired when it's time to sell .

I see some stuff in the classifieds and want to call and ask why they hate their boat. Especially. When you are trying too sell it and make no effort to tighten it up.

Granted, it is a Sandy boat, but this thing looks well neglected long before sandy rolled in! I bet that custom cockpit carpet smells great!

I suppose they spent the money on it, they can treat it however they want. Still a shame, maybe they don't know any better...

I can't believe somebody would pay the money for that Formula then smear all that bottom paint on it tho....

I always washed the boat after being used (in salt water) & covered it anytime it was not being used. When I sold it this spring, the first person that saw it baught it - first thing out of his mouth when he got in was "WOW, I was concerned with this being a 2000 but it is much nicer than the 5 y/o boat I just looked at. It pays to put a little effort into keeping it nice.
