Sorry there lou, wasn't trying to sell the boat, just providing a lead to a classic seacraft that in my opinion was "mint", guess my 73 that i restored should have been classified trash, but yes I agree I wouldn't purchase a boat unseen either And for anyone interested out there, a 1960something 19'6 centerconsole in boattrader down here in so fla boyton bch i believe and i don't have an opinion or care who owns it but its only 3500 SEEEEEE YAAAAAAAAAA

I would say not buyer beware, but more like buyer - take your lumps. I cannot imagine spending 10 to 11000 dollars on something without inspecting it. What would a JetBlue ticket have run you, $200? Not buyer beware, more like shame on buyer.

I guess I am from the old school where my word is my bond. Funny , that used to mean something instead of "just the money" Just take note, If I ever post anything for sale, you can purchase with confidence.

No way I would make a major purchase without looking at it with my own eyes. Oh well.

Jeez Barnaby, I don' think that is the issue. The issue is perception. Everyone's definition of mint is different, and if I was going to spend $11,000 (a low number for a Seacraft) I would damn sure want to see what I was buying,

I somewhat agree with you as far as looking before buying. HOWEVER, The seller says "Mint"..O.K. we know he is selling, Then JT says "Mint", Now are they related? But a survey that was paid? Is it not his "job" to accurately describe all flaws?. You are right. If its my $11K spent, I'm looking. However with a Paid Surveyer involved, I expect an accurate report...Tight Lines Capt.
