You need a bail out

Post by TADTOOMUCH »

You have a troubled asset so you should qualify for a bail out. Pay yourself a huge bonus and have a cold one.

have you been on a F32 ? I know its only one more foot but it has to be the the most room for 32 foot around and of coures there is the F36 . I was looking for a F32 when my F36 came a long . I would have been happy with a 32 , in fact I belive it is set up a liltle better . 1 foot is a lot in boating .

10 years ago I went from a F31 to an F36. Those extra 5 ' more then doubled the usable space of the boat. I coundn't be more pleased with my choice.

Selling it will be rough

Post by rojayva »

I've been trying to sell my 1972 F31 for a number of months. Now I'm down to $5900 and still no biters. It's in the water and runs well but needs some deck work. Still, $5900 for a boat this big? Come on!
