Consignment Sale on my boat
I'm looking to have a consignment sale on my boat. I have two marinas picked out I just have to decide which one. I was thinking with Tanglewood Marine in St. Charles. I know the owner and mechanic. His name is Joey Turek very friendly and knowledgeable. He helped me find my boat originally on Craigslist. He also surveyed my boat inside and out.
The other is Grand Sport Center. At the Lake in The Hills location. There a Baja dealership which is good. Located near the Fox River.
After my boat is sold I'm getting out of boating. I could afford my boat however the cost was getting to me. Limited time to work on boat. With winter boat is deep in storage with no access to boat. Difficult to get any family or friends out on boat. usually crummy weather or aren't around. I can't store my boat in basic garage at all. So eventually I'm going to get a Fox body Mustang GT. To be able to store it in my garage and get more usage out of it. The other is to experience the traveling going to the cities like New York, Seattle, Boston, and much more.
Please let me know.

Be happy to talk to you and help if I can, my cell is 402-290-8070. I don't have an experience working with either places so I'm no help there. Good luck on the sale and the new hobby.

I have bought 3 boats from Jerry at Grand Sport and had him sell my Donzi last year. Had no problems at all. If you take your boat to LOTO, Ed at LOM helped me out while on vacation, also a stand up guy. No matter who you choose make sure you have a contract stating the commission rate or a fixed guarantee dollar amount for you.
Buy the way, I got out of boating for about 6 months before I got back in it....Its a sickness I could not shake.
