Re: looking to get a boat
Man I can't believe how cheap all those boats are, you guys are sooo lucky in the US, guess it's your population that makes them so cheap. I'd be like a kid in a sweet shop over there, I'd probably snap up all those boats for that price. Any of those boats would be at least double possibly 3x the price over here, even taking into account exchange rate. Probably even possible to import and still make a profit.
No joke you can not buy a decent restoration project with a blown motor and rotten hull and trailer for under $2000. A 1970's bare hull with no trailer or motor in average condition would be in the region of $2000. The Bayline with the chrysler is probably $5000-6000 here, seriously.
Wowo I should start importing boats...
