Why would anyone do business with a waste of oxygen such as this guy..

"127mph, bow damage, cost $1.2 million, no trailer, no pics, no emails, bring $26,500, cash"

aaaaahhhh never mind you keep it !

Damn! So it did get hit by a train. The whole story is so wild that I could't figure out whether I actually heard this from someone or if it was just my imagination.

Anyway, a while ago I had a word with Dag Pike who skippered this thing around Britain and I think he said they never saw more than 80 mph on it. It could be that motors were turned down a bit for those endurance runs.

Immaterial though, because it may be 80 or 90 but it's surely not 127 and besides, would you want a boat which already had a pretty tough life before having a close encounter with a freight train?

TNT, if it sat in your facility, do you know anything about the marketing genius who's selling it now?
