27 Oct Missed the Boat
16.5 Aluminum fishing boat & trailer – $1000
1981 Blue Fin 16.5′ Aluminum fishing boat. DOES NOT INCLUDE THE MOTOR!! Boat and trailer only. The trailer tows like a champ, really smooth. Very easy to load & unload. Rollers, bearing buddies, great tires, spare. Boat is rated for up to 40 hp, has 2 new batteries, a new stereo (front MP3 input, USB port, SD slot, 3 Pioneer boat speakers plus a spare), new seats, new flooring, new carpet, new transom, large front storage, new wiring (everything works great). Comes with a nice Eagle fish finder and an older Minkota bow mount trolling motor. Also has rod holders, cup holders, rod mounts, bilge pump, 6 gallon tank, new anchor, new fire extinguisher, hand held horn, 2 new life jackets, 1 new throw-able, bow & stern lights, and a new hand-held spotlight. I’ll also throw in the 2 tongue locks for the trailer. The boat is a fantastic little fishing boat, everything is there. It sucks I have to get rid of it but I’ve got a wedding to pay for soon. My stupidity, your gain.

Aye Aye Sir,
Cool boat! I’d love to take it off your hands so you can get married. And, don’t be so hard on yourself. You’re not stupid for wanting to sell the boat. Only for getting married! Let me know if it’s still available.
Thanks,
RP

I meant foolish for getting married. At least I know there will be other boats in my future, not just the one for the rest of my life. I didn’t think this through. Just kidding.
You were the first to reply by exactly 15 minutes so you get first option to come take a look. If Thursday after 5:00 works for you I’ll be available then. Let me know.
Thanks,

Ahoy, there!
I’m looking forward to seeing the boat. I’d like to wear my sailor suit and bring along my first mate, if you don’t mind. Let me know if this works!
Thanks,

Captain Nick,
Sounds great! Please contact me via Iridium or HAM radio. My call sign is RP1CFWP. If I’m not available, you’re more than welcome to contact Slippy, my first mate. His call sign is RP2CFWP. If you have any trouble, go ahead and visit the International Telecommunications Union. We are in Region 2. Can’t wait to check out the boat, and hope to hear from you soon!
P.S. Do you have any extra life jackets?
Thanks,
RP
