I called back the day after my post and someone had come that morning, saw
the boat and paid the guy asking price I should have known that boat
wouldn't last! Now I am looking at boats that are half way across the
country and will end up having to get a survey done if I see something
that
I like assuming I have to go this route since I can't find anything
locally. Thanks for the info!

Who knows if the guy who purchased the Seville jumped into a bad deal. For
all you know it was overpriced and in bad shape.

Relax and don't fret it. Late summer and early fall is often the best time
to buy a boat.

You have 8 to 10 full months to find the perfect boat so it is sitting at
your dock in summer 2007. Take your time. Understand your needs and make
sure the boat fills them. Lastly, make sure the boat of your choice is
subject to favorable structural and mechanical (including a compression
test) surveys, as well a favorable sea trial before you buy it.

This can be a fun time or a stressful time, depending on how you choose to
use it. ;-)
