He He you guys are funny.....I have Bigshrimpin to thank/blame for being the first in alerting me about the e-bay listing. Then Mcgillicuddy sent me a PM about it as well. Since I had never bid on an e bay listing I had no clue how to go about it so I consulted E-bay and Craiges List Pro staffer "Bigshrimpin" who coached me through the whole process. The last 5 minutes was very exilerating and my knees were shaking as I watched the computer go crazy those last few seconds. Some poor bastard in Florida lost out on a nice boat...all he had to do was bid a little more. But it would have cost three time the sale price to have it shipped there...I know the position he was in... been there before.
Hermco- while we were cleaning out the boat we found about $21.00 in small change so I think we are right at the $800.00 mark as we speak ![]() Gill- It really is a nice solid boat. We are going to do more cleaning/polishing. so far all we have had to do was put in 2 new batteries and and electric fuel pump. We put some points and a new condenser on the engine as well. I got in touch with the previous owner who had donated this boat to the auction company and he told us that the rebuilt engine has about 10 hours on it...it really does purr like a kitten. PS Biglew eat your heart out! ![]() strick
