Does anyone know who purchased this boat up in NY?? It had the bow cover. The guy who was selling texted me back and said he sold it and I was the second one who asked about buying the cover.

He didn't offer to help put you in touch with the new owner? 

The other person that called was Brandon...

Offer the guy $50 to put you in touch with the new owner...finder's fee...if he sold the boat for $500, and you offered $1500, and parted it out...I bet you'd have a free cover.

Sent him another text, lets see what he says. Doran, how much would your limit be to buy one?

That's tough.  I wouldn't pay more than $1k for one.  BUT...b/c there's an entire boat attached to it, (if he won't break it up), then I'd have to consider resale of the boat 'coverless'. and worry about the 'net price'...

To me...the value of the cover increases the boats value by that, so that'd be my 'break even' point...adding in some 'coolness' factor as well.

Hey John, just keep an eye out for that boat. Let me know if you see it around.
