When I was first in Fla I traveled the east coast of the state calling on all the boat builders I could find. What some of the people would build and then try to sell was mind boggling! Miami and it's suburbs were always the worst. Probably had the best too and being as big a city as it is I'm sure goes w/the territory but man.........
There is a local fly by night repair/used boat sales place that spent 2 mnths trying to sell a set of molds advertised as a "splash of a 24' Pantera". They were advertised as only needing minor repair before use. You could see from 100 yds @ 50 MPH they were toast. I think he was down to $2500. before finally selling them.
Used to go down there to buy scattered motors but ended up screwed almost every time and haven't been back in yrs!
Interesting on the Skater deal though. Can anyone really believe that Peter made a deal w/some young punk to build 24's ????? Maybe daddy had really deep pockets.
