Marina Auction in Brick, NJ
 

Saw in the paper that there is a marina liquidation at cove haven marina on 505 ridge road in brick, NJ. The ad says they will have a 96 50' scraab, 36' baha outlaw, '93 36' Skater.........and all kinds of other crap......Ive been to these auctions before, and sometimes the ad is bull****, but i figure its worth a driveby.....auction starts at 11. If anyone shows there, say howdy (if im still there)....tan shorts, white bass ale shirt......

How was it?

WHat did you get us ???:D

OK, here's what happens when you rush. The auction isnt till the 21st. I got there and there were no people, and i figured that i was gonna buy the whole place for a $1000 or so. Then i got the newspaper clipping out of my pocket and realized the REAL date. So, maybe ill see someone there next week. I cant guarentee ill be wearing the same clothes. Right now i feel pretty dumb for sure. Cant wait till next week tho. :p

you mispelled Baja. you know me, that one kid, Whippin Boy on the registry with the red avitar scot made!

Yes HyperbaJa, i spelled it wrong. I was too busy dreaming of $4000 skaters and such, so i rushed. And yes, i know you from the other board. I didnt put the auction there yet incase i ran across a $1000 D boat.:D

Ill be at this auction (again) next week for sure. .....

where and when is taht auction? i need some parts and might make a run down for it.

Puder,
The auction is Saturday Sept. 21st. The marina was just taken over by Lightning Jacks, which also has another facility in brick. This one is at 505 Ridge Road. A little tricky to get to. Heres a MAP that may help. The auction is to begin at 11am. Im sure theyll move more stuff to the site by saturday. I'm hoping to get a look on friday, as i dont have to work.
I may be able to get some parts for my big boat. I've been to these auctions before, and you never know what the heck is gonna show up. drop me an email if anyone needs more info. [email protected]

Did anyone go?

Yep, i made it there. Had a banker's note, and registered for the auction. A few go fast boats were there, but few sold. Some of the reserves must have been pretty high. The 36' lightning jack's skater, with 4 motors (1 in boat, 3 elsewhere), twin #6s, was bid up to 140k but i dont think it sold. There was a 97 donzi 28zx, single screw. There was a reserve and no one bid on it. I dont think anyone wanted a race boat that had been run real hard for a few years. It WAS a little beat up. An 87 46' sea ray didnt sell after bidding hit 145k. 50' scarab, about an '89, with trips, used to belong to vince mcmahon of WWF fame. Bidding stalled and i dont think that one went either. I think the baha sold, bidding stalled around 85k. A cool boat that i never heard of was a 98 campion chase 910. Apparently a canadian made boat. twin 454's with imcos, dual ram imco external steering, k planes. Looked real nice. That one sold for 45k.

Im not sure if all of the final bids were accepted, the auctioneer would merely state that many of the bids needed to be confirmed, and no one heard much after that. I may drive by in a couple of weeks and see what is left on the lot, talk to some people and get some REAL prices.
