Nah. I prefer to not ask questions and buy sight unseen. Everybody is honest on the internet and it's like Christmas every time the item arrives. Surprise!!!

Yes everything is true, you're a French model, and the guy that obviously looked the boat over because he wanted it but didn't dig deep enough into the piggy bank says it sank to the windshield. Even though there's no signs of damage and the whole phucking boat is drier than my boat, it must have sank. Says so on the Internet!

Some of the pictures were taken while it was still in Point Pleasant. Thats Schraders Yachts in the background. Perhaps a call to them tomorrow will reveal something.

some peoples clean is different than others, most people who work on their own boats have a different look as a guy with a big check book.

So a person lists a boat on Ebay, Craigslist, or boating website. Some concern is raised to the fact that boat was damaged in Super Storm Sandy. Boat may have sank part way or fully submerging engine. Fact is that boat has a salvage title and is not being advertised as such. Basically there has been concern raised that boat is trying to be sold to an unsuspecting buyer as nothing more than a used boat.

Orignial thread on the Baja board has been removed for some reason. Kind of wonder about that?

Anyway boat is still being advertised with no mention of salvage title.
