Quint4 got it. I found an ad on Craigslist in Sarasota Florida, but the boat is said to be in Springfield Ill area.
2004 Sea Ray SUNDANCER 300
Boat title: Clear
Body type: DECK
Engine: 2004 Mercury MERCRUISER
Twin inboard/outboard 5.0L 260HP
Exterior color: White
Fuel type: Gasoline
Lenght: 30.0 feet
$16500.00 + Trailer
"As I've told you at this moment I am in IL in a military base getting ready for Iraq (I hope for the last time). I`m doing a special training program each day and I am not allowed to get out of the unit or give calls whenever I want.The shipping is not a problem because a have considerable discount from eBay and I can do it at no cost for you. You will receive the boat along with all the documents including title, bill of sale, full service records and more . Because it is a large transaction we will complete the deal only using an authorized third part like eBay coz I already prearranged the whole process with them, using their escrow SafePay Program.
The boat is located in their warehouse in Springfield, IL (ready for delivery). I've asked them to allow viewers to go there and inspect the boat but their reply was: "We are not a showroom!" In this case I will offer a 5 days period to inspect the boat from the moment you`ll receive it, before I'll have your money. I think this is more than fair for both of us.
You will have to arrange the payment to eBay bank account ( $16,500.00 ).They will hold the founds untill you receive the boat and also test it!!! As soon as you'll complete the payment, the shipping will start to your address. It will take no more then 10 working days to arrive at your home address.(i'll pay the shipping).I offer 5 days for inspection, during this time, if the vehicle isn't like i decribed (although this will never happen, because the boat is gorgeous)you will get all the founds you sent to ebay. Shipping back to my location will be paid by me, again, i'm telling you this will never happen!!!
If this is ok with you please reply with your complete name and shipping address in your next email and let me know if you are interested in knowing more details about this purchase so that I can open a transaction with eBay and move forward with this deal. Like this you'll be able to talk with them directly and ask all you want to know."
Sounds too good to be true!!! And a little hokey to me. No inspection or survey!!

it is a scam. no doubt about it.
-ebay does not own safepay.
-Price to low
-seller not available
-free shipping
They will likely try to get you to do a bank transfer in the end.

I live in St. Louis - That boat is not in Springfield. It is in Texas - just look at the GPS. That boat is worth 80k plus.

I bet this boat is not listed anywhere near springfield because people would want to see it.
The written english is definitely someone from another country. We don't talk like that here!
Do some others a favor and flag the craigslist ad. I've seen ads for other stuff and posted a ad pointing that I thought theirs was a scam.

Yes, I saw the GPS too, but just thought it was the default setpoint, Mine when rebooted came up somewhere else. There is a TX reg number, I can't quite make it out.

Here is the latest response when I offered to come pick it up with CASH!!
"unfortunately is impossible for me to leave the military base as i`m not authorized for it in order to met you for a face to face deal, that`s why i`m using ebay services as a third party and a shipping company to complete this transaction. please understand my position and if you`re still interested get back to me with your full name and shipping address so i can forward your details to eBay"
Thanks for the link Travis!
