Took boat out past no wake zone, hit the throttle and engine fell on its face. proceeded to get boat on plain, which was not very easy due to bad pump. rode down the lake and noticed whole dash was moving, which indicates to me the floor is broke loose and not solid. put boat back on trailer as Karl had appt to get to, agreed to talk again later. I decided I was not going to purchase what I viewed as unsafe boat for my family or any one elses for that matter. Karl informed me this boat was turn key. I realize that one persons view of turn key is different from another, but with all these little things wrong with boat, how can it truly be turn key when there is a fear of making it back to to the launch ramp after a day of boating. I was led to believe pump was ok, floor solid, interior and hull in better condition than they were. Maybe if owner had been more forth coming about boats condition then it would not have come to this. I understand that for the price I'm not going to get a perfect boat, nor am i Looking for perfect boat. But I view this boat as a project, not turn key and not worth more than $2000.

thats just a small part of it. i dont think that just my post was it..

[Sportin' Wood]

Damn dude, did you have the saved to your hard drive??? :D :D
Just a pretty good memory. :)
I was going to go retrieve a few more bits of info but I think it was better advice just to PM a turnkey team member because they are all about helping and all.

[Sportin' Wood]

Oh yea Barry I forgot to add my superior lurking skills help in retrieving useless bits of trivia. just gotta keep the post count under 1000 so I can remain below the radar. :crossx:

From what I can tell it's a group that has had their cells unlocked ..hence "turnkey" ..but I'm new here

-HB board memeber advertises turnkey jet boat for sale.
-HB board member meets with another member of HB, herafter referred to as potential buyer, to check boat out and go for test ride.
-HB member and potential buyer 'agree' to talk later in day about boat
-Potential buyer decides boat is not up to snuff, see posts above refernecing problems with boat.
-HB board memeber decides to start thread that calls out potential buyer for not calling back
-Potential buyer gets wind of thread, posts response as to why no call was made, again see posts above
-Thread EXPLODES in HB members bilge, so to speak
-Team Turnkey, as best as I can figure, is then started as a joke and as a result of a boat being marketed as 'turnkey' when it was not in the general opinions of other board members based on the information provided
Perhaps the funniest comment about the whole ordeal was the someone saying that 'just because the key turns does not make it a turnkey boat'. LMAO :D

That's a pretty good rundown of events. You know, the best part of this whole deal is nobody really knew what Team Turnkey was, other than a little pic in JBB and my signatures. Now everyone knows and they're all over the place.
Thanks for calling all this attention to Team Turnkey Spammit!!!! :D :D :D
