Was searching around and either these people dont know what they have, or something is seriously wrong with these boats...

Anyone in the market should check into this...boat 1.jpg boat 2.jpg
 
If it is you better jump on it!!!!
 
That boat has a Florida registration number. The ad says $12,000 new and asking $12,000 and they will deliver!!!!
 
Sounds fishy to me. (Don't pardon the pun - it was intentional)
 
Didnyou try the phone #? I'll bet they ask for money to ship it to you so you can take a look. Sounds like a scam.
 
Not the stock trailer either.
 
Guaranteed SCAM.
 
I just sent him a $5000.00 money order to hold it for me till I can drive to Ohio from Florida...Lol
 
Actually, this could be fun. Call and tell him you are a consignment seller and that for $5k you will take his boat and sell it for him. All you need is his credit card number--oops, that one didn't go through, do you have another?
 
That is most likely just what people think it is a scam . I recall a similar situation a few years ago that people from the old board were contacting the person and posting all their B S on the web site for everyone to see just what a big pile of garbage the add was so maybe we can do that again and have a few laughs.
 
I did try the phone number and got a recording saying that no one was at that extention. Kind of odd. I guess I better put a stop payment on that Western Union payment! ;)
 
The same ad is listed on half the eastern seaboard. I have been looking on Search Tempest and kept coming across the same ad. Total scam.
 
I "May" be able to see where that boat is registered to in FL...Maybe one of our guys can go take it out for a test run lol
 
And if your Department seizes it ....you can buy it at auction!:winkingthumbsup"
 
Funny you said that.....I was looking at the Govdeals.com site in Florida. Had to laugh the City of Cape Coral is selling 35,000 cubic yards of dirt. Opening bid was like $57,000. Not sure a city in Florida should be digging deep holes to generate cash.
 
Ive heard of balancing a budget, but thats pretty extreme if that's how it went down lol
