Default Where do these boats go??

I've always wondered where some of these boat disappear to? I think about some f the boats that have been for sale over the years and when the sell, they vanish, never to be seen again. Examples:

Spiderman 46RR. Had Merc 850s and was a Miami boat show boat

There was a 2004 Nortech 36 cat from Oklahoma- Basic 2004 paint, 700HP N/A power. Price was around $135. It sold.

Solid Candy-apple red ZR38. No graphics, 525s for sale 3-4 years ago for a very long time

A couple of different ZRCs

All of the Outerlimits 51 SYs except for the one in the classifieds that seems to be minimum of $60K overpriced and has been out there for many years.

I'm sure you guys can think of many more.

Hopefully someone repainted the Superman Cig......that was as bad as the Looney Toons MTI!

No idea on the other boats but I did ask the other day about the 46 OL Vegas boat. Dan reported it is now in Ohio (after being for sale for years in FL).

This was a very cool 46 RR that supposedly met a bad ending:

Someone PM'd me that it was stolen/never recovered during a time it was at the center of a motor refresh dispute. I had posted the video on another thread and the PM came that day, can't remember who sent it.

I saw the boat in person when it was new and it was easily my favorite Cigarette I had ever seen. Rumor around the docks back then was Jeff Gordon owned it (he had a house in Highland Beach, boat had Highland Beach as the home port). But as short as he is, I can't see him owning this type of boat! He had a big motoryacht named 24 Carat at the time so if the story was right then maybe this was a tender.

We have a 51 OL on our lake. Mostly orange. Has twin 1200's I think. Nice boat. Maybe that is one that you are asking about?

What about the boat "Hellion". Believe it was a MTI completely covered in Orange and yellow flames. Owner was throwing money around for about a year and then disappeared about as quickly as he appeared. Boat showed up in the classifieds here a couple years later then vanished again.

Always thought there was something fishy about that deal.
