Well after all the phones calls, emails, pictures and money sent the guy backed out saying he needed payment in full before he would deliver the boat. The deal was to pay 1/2 now and the rest to the driver that was going to bring the boat out.
Its a long story but here is the short version. I found the boat talking online about a year ago. I over heard this "boat builder" saying he took this fun deck in to do a para-sail conversion on it, but the guy skip out and never got back to him so he wanted to get a lean tittle on the boat to recoupe his $$$. So I told him I was interested and to send me some pics. At the time he wanted 16K so I was all over it. Well i never heard from the guy for about 1yr and then one day i get a call on my cell phone and its this guys wife asking if i ever got any pics of the boat. So I gave her the scoop and she said she would next day them, which she did. So I told her I had to sell my boat first and I would get back to them. Well about 2 mo. later the guy gives me a call and leaves a msg telling me he will take 10k that week. So i call him and tell I might have the boat sold and would love to buy the boat. He tells me, well a few people are interest and I really need to sell it this week to put the money into a new boat design? well a week goes by and I sell my boat. So I give him a call let him know and the deal is on. I tell him 1/2 now 1/2 later and its done.Then all drama starts. :mad: Higher offers, more money to deliver, tells me the boat has a 6'x 4" I beam in it for the para sail eek! ,he has no time to wait for me to come look at the boat, ect. argue So im back in the market for a new ride. :rolleyes:
