That looks like it would make one sweet ride. All you need is time and money, both of which are in short supply around my place.

That console in the CC you showed looks as big as a bomb shelter. You could live in there!

When I retire, in about 10 years (or 5 if the legislature will pass the 25 yr ret.) I am going to start in fixing boats like that. *There are so many boats out there that can be made into great rides. *But people keep throwing them away in favor of $50-100K rigs.
Wish I had the time and money now but that all goes to my 3 kids at the moment. *I figure in 10 years they wont want to hang around with me, unless I have a really cool boat.

Boy is 10, girls 8 and 5. My son is a real fisherman. He often outfishes me. My girl 8 is very good at it as well but she would rather just boat ride. The little one loves to ride as well, and she watches fishing shows with me.

I hope the guy who stole it from you is as worthy a boat repairman as you.

worst part it was a woman got the winning bid i think the guy has his wife bid so it wouldn't sell so cheap.

Serves em right.
I cant believe such underhandedness would take place on ebay.

I never bid till the last 10 sec in any auction I am in on.
I bid the highest bid i want to pay at that time.
This way if there is someone there bidding $1 at a time will never get it, cause he can't refresh it fast enough.
works almost 95% of the time.
If it was meant to be, you would be heading there right now!! So must not have been meant to be, Something telling you to finish up one or two before getting another.

That's what a snipe service does for you automatically. No waiting around for an auction to end.
