Selling the boat!

[Gary H NC]

Well,I put the boat in my avatar up for sale yesterday.I put it on Ebay and already have 23 bids.My reserve price has been reached already and it has 7 more days to go.
I'm kind of going to miss the old girl. All the hours i spent turning wrenches and fixing everything i could find.
I hope when it sells it goes to a good home... Geeeze! i sound like its a person or my dog...lol
I just hope My other boat holds up through the season with no major problems.
It will be so nice this winter to not have a I/O to winterize..
Also i'm going to take some of the funds and do more upgrades to my ChrisCraft..

Re: Selling the boat!

man they already know all about it. i've use you ebay listing to help 2 guys already today. one buying, and one getting ready to sell. but they were both the 3.0, rather than that fine 4.3.

Thanks TD..... I think my add is doing well.

Have you ever used any of the folding deck chairs? Was thinking about a couple for the rear of the CC. They look comfortable and can be folded up and put away when not needed. Kind of pricey at about 115 per chair but that way i wouldn't have to drill any holes in the deck.
I need a swim ladder for the back too..

Was just out cleaning the Starcraft out.I found a set of ESA switches in the dash i didn't even know i had.Good for the next guy.

Re: Selling the boat!

the good quality deck chair work very well, try to find the smallest ones you can, yet still comfortable. i still use to old over the gunnel hook style ladders. just have to get the right size hook. or you could mount one of those mini foldable swim platforms on one side of the transom. they will fold up against the transom when fishing.

Re: Selling the boat!

Well Bidder #3 sure had a little party with himself . . . What was the reserve? I can't really tell now that Bidder 5 has made things serious. Good add and good luck going forward, with 7 days left this should fetch a good price AND get somebody a nice boat

Re: Selling the boat!

Bidder #3 had me wondering. Those bidders with no feedback i don't take serious.
My reserve was 4199,thats where it is at right now. I have about 33 watchers also. I got a feeling the last few minutes of the auction will be a shooting match,thats good for me though!!

Re: Selling the boat!

looks like deck chairs are in your future. have you thought about having a aluminum plate made to hook over the transom, after the pour. it would really help distribute the weight and thrust.
