Well it all happened within a few hours today, the boat went on Yachtworld last Thursday. It's in Stuart, FL and I started talking to the dealer this morning and got him to send me a bunch of pictures. It just so happened that a guy at my marina (who is a surveyor) winters in Jupiter, about 20 miles away from the boat. He went and looked at it this afternoon and said it looked really good. I made an offer, the dealer countered once and that was it! I'm sending the deposit tomorrow and setting up CAT and hull surveys for next week which is when I'll go down. The dealer is pushing to get it closed by the end of the year for his books. It's an '01 w/ 800 hours (a little higher than I would like) but the owner was a stickler on maintenance and has all records down to oil changes. Has full cockpit enclosure, A/P, radar, gps and flo-scans. Oh yeah, and I didn't pay a premium for the CAT's... I got free land storage out of them for up to 90 days with a promise to keep the boat clean (yeah right). I will have it trucked up around mid-march since it's the dead of winter here in PA. Now it's going to be a loooong winter!! :smt089
