I'm curious, as I'm looking at the 32 you didn't purchase. Why did the deal fall through? Was there something wrong with the boat as it sure looks nice. Any help you can provide would be great!

Hi
Sorry it took so long.
First when I saw the boat online-it was beautiful and thought I could bring it via water but I could never really get an answer as to how long.
then I was going to hire a captain.I thought I could ship it over the road for a couple of thousand dollars-if I gout it at a good price-which she gave me.
WRONG! cheapest was $4400 price range and the flybridge would have to come off. around a 1200 mile trip I think.
Anyway she wanted me to send her $1600 overnight mail and to sign some papers. IN the meantime I was looking at another boat closer to me but not as good and told him about the the deal I had going and he sent three emails saying she was a fraud.I tried calling her for two days and never got an answer so I panicked and stopped payment on the check but I also posted if anyone heard of her on the fingerlake forum. Finally she had a broker call me to verify she was the real deal but I already stopped everything and she admitted she did not connect yet with the owner who was sick I guess. I dropped out of the deal and she said the boat was stored at horny goat marina.The survey that was taken 5 months ago said it had tow or three small spots on the port side.
everything else was ok-stringers etc etc.-I wanted that boat but just to much of a hassle.
goodluck with the boat.

Nice,
Let me know when you get it. I live 10 minutes from Barrett's and would love to see it in person.

I bought a trojan F 36 and it is at the barrett marina right now.
Just don't know where to start as far as changes to be made.

I might swing by this weekend and poke around. I'll look for you if I make it over. Just found out I close on my new Trojan on Monday.
