    What some people seem to expect????

    We get calls almost everyday from "Newbies" who have no clue as to what anything is worth. Often I see a used boat listed on S&F for under $2000.00 and it never fails that someone will post asking if that includes the engine and trailer??? This seems to be what most of these types seem to expect...

    (1)Boat has to be near new and able to carry 4 adults, 3 kids and 4 cases of beer on ice.
    (2) Boat has to ride very smooth so as not to spill any beer.
    (3) Boat must come standard with a 5000 watt stereo system.
    (4) Boat must run over 100 Mph.
    (5) Engine must turn at least 11,000 rpm
    (6) Engine must get 50 miles to the gallon and run on the cheapest fuel anywhere even kerosene and still continue to run even if the oil is left out..
    (7) Engine must require absolutely no service ever.Not gear lube, not a water pump impeller NOTHING!!
    (8) The trailer must be capable of carrying the boat as rigged and a couple of utility buildings and a dog house all at the same time.
    (9) Trailer must be made entirely of stainless steel, even the springs, but weigh less than 200 lbs
    (10) all of this must have a lifetime no questions asked full replacement of the merchandise and all their money back warranty for every person who ever owns it in history..

    We sell these..... they're just on backorder

    I have ten of those boats and trailers. Send me your money order or cashiers check. I will mail the boat out UPS, if it doesn't arrive within 50 years call our warranty department which is located in the White House (I don't have the number handy you can just look it up).

    Noah,
    If you were to give them the boat, motor and trailer and the waterpump died on it 5 years from now from ingesting seashells they would be on here badmouthing you as a "Bad Vendor"......
