Does any ever see thier old boat on the water after selling it?
We have been on the water almost every weekend for the past couple of years either in Havasu or Parker and would think that we would see our old boats atleast once.
One time i saw 1 boat i owned about 3 boats ago in Parker but none of the others.They should be in good running cond.
1 was a 94 Eliminator and another was a 98 Ultra.

Before we purchased our boat last summer we spent 3 years on our friends boat. It was pretty much the only boat I was ever on. He sold it last summer. I see it out on the lake here. I can not even look at it. I cried the first time I saw someone else driving it. :rolleyes: :)

I don't think I will ever see my old boat cause I am sure whoever bought that POS drilled a hole in it and used it for an anchor :crossx:

Ya know, I sold a cherry OB Tahiti. The guy said he was going to run it hard.
He put it on his credit card and I never saw him or the boat ever again.
He was local too. :confused: Maybe to loco.
I always wandered what happen to that boat. I had alot of bucks and elbow work into it. :idea:

We sold the boat thru a dealer near Folsom Lake, we live in San Luis Obispo Co., Atascadero. A few years later we were prefishing the Delta and were idling thru a 5mph zone and passed by our old boat with the new owner in it. We both turned around and talked for about 10 minutes. The boats were the same color scheme. Thats how he knew who we were.
The real p#sser was when we ordered that boat we didn't know if the color scheme would look right. Before we saw it some jerk saw it tried to buy it ,then ordered one just like it. So now there are four 18'4, (2) 19' and the copy cat's 20'.
Champion Bass boat all metal flake, Gun metal w/20% alfa jewels, Purple arrow and center of top cap w/bright red pins. Known as that stupid purple bass boat, even though the majority of the boat is Gun metal.

P.S. We have suprised more then one Hot Boat in our "Mr. Toads Wild Ride"

YES!!! :yuk: Aftershock was kind enough to make 2 exact duplicates of our boat :yuk: Used our graphics we drew, same colors and everything. One of the owners was always embarassed when they saw us and another one of them actually came up to us at the Sandbar and apologzed for copying our boat. I almost puked when I saw theirs.
Who cares now....its someone else's triplet now and I don't think anyone will be copying our Stoker. :rollside: :rollside:

The guy we sold our boat to goes to Martinez Lake. He calls us to find out info on the work my husband did on it and they even sent pictures of them in it!! I was very sad but they do take care of it. I think.. :notam: They want to meet up to boat together sometime. :rolleyes:

Sold one of my race boats. The new owner seems always to be up front. Does that mean he's a better driver than I was. Nothing else changed

OK, so it's safe to say the Nautical hasn't looked like that for a week? :)

I have seen my old Wreidt Maverick twice in the last 15 years since selling it. It looked as good as the day I sold it. Before that I restored a old v-drive back in 82-83 and then saw it rotting away in a junkyard ready to be cut up for scrap 16 years later.........really wreaked my day and almost made me cry. I get to see my old 92' Keaton in Riverbrat's avatar here on these boards occasionally

After starting this thread last week.I was standing by my trailer @ Crazy Horse Sat night and found that our old boat is 1 row over and about 10 trailers down.

LOL... I saw my old PartyCat up in Topock Marina a few years back. I tried talking to the owner, and he was a total A-hole. Geez... I was just trying to be friendly!

I would like to see my old boats. I haven't seen any of them since the day I sold them, not a picture or anything. The only one I wonder about is my 19' Ultra, what it looks like now and how it is running.
