Why have I been hiding lately?

Hoop - that's the boat! Fedexed the check today - scheduled to be loaded on hauler Tuesday and in New England by late week [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] ...

Scott - I give you the details later but the short version was that this boat was for sale in Cali back in June for 20K. A few weeks after seeing it for sale on BT, one of my weird web searches showed this boat for sale in Cali for 20K with the guy pleading for someone to buy it before he moved to FL. "Supposedly" this boat was used 90% on Lake Tahoe and "rarely" seen salt... Well, the guy didn't sell it for 20K, shipped it to FL, sold it to the guy I'm buying from who did not have it surveyed - it needed some structural work and went into a good local shop to get fixed (the work was done very well) but the other work needed was still more than the current owner wants to do. So that's how I got it. I was VERY interested in this boat the 1st time around and honestly, this is probably too early for me too but I don't want to miss it.... The asking price was 16800 and I got it for well less than that..

For a couple reasons I need to keep this off my other site for now due to some other stuff going on but I wanted to share this with the guys here at CS...
