1979 200 Family Fisherman
« on: September 27, 2012, 08:14:12 PM »
This is a honey pie cream puff. She was owned by an elderly gent from Marco Island. He kept it in his garage every summer since original purchase. When it wasn't in the garage, it was on his boat lift, beneath a custom cover.

No expense has been spared in her constant upkeep. She is truly "Palm Beach" condition. SOLID transom. SOLID floor. Dry stringers. Engine meticulously serviced, all records.

Must see to believe. First $11,500. Serious inquiries only.

The only possible impropriety on this pristine vessel is the stern lifting eye below the port side pedigree may perhaps appear slightly askew at certain angles.

Otherwise ....she is rigged and ready for any offshore adventure :thumright:

Members and new members...this is a spoof on an occurance four years ago.

I took an old grandpa at his word...the boat purchased was described as above...and the pics shown are what was received. Without the hull damage from being dropped fifteen feet onto concrete.

"Must see to believe"....Captain Bob pegged it....don't take anyone's word, no matter if it's your grandaddy.....go see it. The good members here offered to go see the boat on my behalf. I didn't want to bother my new friends...and the old Marco Island bluebird bastard took me...hook, line, and sinker.

I lost 5K on the deal. For those interested, it is on the "Caveat Emptor" thread on classifieds.

A dream purchase became a nightmare. The old cheat was 82 years old. If he has passed, he went straight to Hell. If he hasn't, he'll be there soon enough.

It's been four years...and yep, the lost 5K still hurts. But what bothers me the most is how an old man, with the clock ticking on his time here, knowingly deceived his fellow man. I wasn't brought up like that. In my business, it's easy to screw people, and some have done so. I'd rather die poor than to die rich, knowing I got rich by cheating folks.

Never seen an award given for the richest man in the graveyard.

As has been said in a book I heard about (and I'm not religious!)...

Tis easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, than it is for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God...
