Good Luck is all I have to say about this guy in Hot Springs. I have been hot to trot on this boat since I have seen it. Excactly what I was looking for. First, the guy told me that he had it sold to a guy that was showing up the next day with cash money. We negotiated and agreed on a price of 17k with all drives and complete boat less motors and NO trailer. He says its my boat if the first guy doesn't show up. He calls back the next day says the first guy walked and said that he had misreperesned the boat somehow. The issue started to become over the drives. The seller stated to me that he got a million calls on the boat.... a day goes by and I keep asking if we have a deal based upon what we have agreed upon. The guy keeps skirting around the issue about the drives. Then calls back the next day and says that he got a million calls and now wants 21k for the boat with the drives or 17k with out. I told him he was going back on the deal we agreed upon. He said take it or leave it. I said that I dont' do businsess like that and walked. He then calls me back two days later said two other guys he had deals with walked and did I still want the boat...... I said yes. 17k like we talked and he wouldn't agree to the drives and skirted around the issue.. I walked and that was it..... He calls again and says o.k. to 17k but now he doesn't have a bill of sale or MSO.... Still can't produce one. He called again about two hrs ago and wants to know when I am coming to get the boat. I said, who would buy anything without a title, MSO, or any bill of sale or origin. He hasn't responded.
The problem is I really fricken want this boat! The problem is the seller in my opinion will not give me a straight answer. I walked because I am not going to drive 750miles to get there and find out the deal has changed. I am onto something else. Not bashing anyone just stating problems I have so no one gets burned. Watch out......

I sent him a PM on the classified the other day if he would accept trades and got no response. I want it but won't give him straight cash yet since I still have my boat and will need to put a bunch of cash into engines and all the other missing parts on this PP. If somebody buys my Rocket, this PP will be in my driveway.
