I inspected this boat last month at REEL DEAL MARINE. What they have done here is put the boat on ebay and esentially bought it back. Now that they have a feel for the market, thanks, in some large part to this site, they know that somebody will likley come along and pay $20,000 or more.

They did qualify in their ad that they reserve the right to "reject any and all bids". Although they have done nothing illegal, just a little unethical and misleading.

My first clue on arrival at REEL DEAL MARINE was that I heard the "F" word firing around like there was no tommorrow. In the office, next to the coffee maker, was (3) 1 Litre bottles of your favorite vodka, scotch and something else nasty - sitting out for quick availability... The guy didn't shake my hand and acted a little dumb about the boat - "there it is, runs like a champ"

I have a full set of photos which clearly show this boat needing a minimum of $20,000 worth of work, not including freshening the motors - a BIG question mark.

MY MESSAGE TO REEL DEAL MARINE: PEOPLE ARE NOT AS STUPID AS YOU MAY THINK. WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND - BUYERS BEWARE! [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]
