Frack, I have driven by that place in Watseka, IL. It's been closed for years. If you want to bring a truck and semi trailer, there is quite a bit of stuff laying around outside. Maybe we could get you a factory direct boat???

LMAO!! Are you serious!!! How sweet would that be!!!

Thanks for the info guys, i had never heard of that mfg and according to the NADA price, that price seems fair (with a trailer). I saw the other guys posts about Sea SPRINT boats, i had a suspicion that he was asking about the same brand, just a typo. That is a coinkydink!
