Re: bank repo sites
 
I've bought 3 repo's, you just have to realize what you getting into!! I have had to completely redo one boat, motors only in one and Interior in another. It seems to work for me, but I enjoy working on my boats!! Some people don't, thats fine to, but there is no way I could afford this recreation sport that I LOVE so much if I bought new and paid someone else to work on everything.

Asking me what sites are best??? I only found one on the internet and it actually was on Boattrader.com. As for the other two, one came from a Car Auction (I have a friend that is a dealer and called me from the auction) the other was a add that alot of people wouldn't have called on because it sounded too cheap. I called and found out it was going back if he didn't sell it that week, after I drove two states to look at the boat I bought it under what he owed and he had to get a friend to cover the difference so I could take the boat out of state.

-There are a lot of good web sites just do a search for them and then do you research, research, research!!!
-Get a survey
-Move Fast, the good deals don't last!! Get you money ready and be ready to jump!!
-Best thing is have an idea of the boat that you want and look for it.

I am the repo man :eek: The majority of the boats we repo never make it to any auction. The true banks are the ones that want the big $$$ for what is left of a boat we pick up. Most of the bank repos are assigned to a broker that more often than not, buys the boat and makes the repairs, then boat is back on the market.The credit unions are great they put the boat right out front, take bids on it for about two weeks. The high bidder takes it home. Simple

My sister and brother-in-law bought their 40ft SeaRay Sundancer from National Liquidators last winter. They had to put about $15,000 into the boat to get it where it is now, but they bought the boat anticipating that. That included new bottom paint, wet sanding the whole boat, some canvas pieces, etc, etc. Also, National Liquidators got them a better interest rate than anyone else. The only "complaint" they had was the boat was originaly from Grand Lake OK and got shipped to Ft. Lauderdale about 2 months before they bought it. We live about 2hrs from Grand, so they could have saved about 4 grand in transporting the boat! I guess all I meant to say was they had a real good experience with them.
