The broker just called. He has a written offer for the Navigator.

Damit.
Tell the broker to buzz off.

You ain't gonna sell it, you know you ain't gonna sell it and you know
you never will sell it.

Stop pretending. :)
Probably right. The offer has been made by another broker on behalf of
his client in the Annapolis area. The client is a seasoned boater, very
familiar with Navigators although he has not seen ours yet. They are
sending the signed offer and contract up here as I type and, if agreeable,
plan to visit this weekend for a survey and sea trial. If all goes ok,
they want to take immediate delivery of the boat.

I don't know what to think. Kingman just winterized it yesterday and I've
got Christmas ---- oops --- *Holiday* lights strung on it. Guess I'll be
heading down there tomorrow or Friday if I can shake this cold.

Sea trial? What's the weather like there?


Over cast and cold, but this morning I ran up a 23' Hydra-Sports CC
which was purchased last week - wore my rain gear with a thermal
jacket under and heavy shoes.

It was cold, but not overly so. Guys fish in this weather all the
time for winter flounder.



You should move to NE Florida. This time of year, when we lived down
there, I would fish for flounder under the docks at St. Augustine, or at
the "corner" of Salt Run and St. Augustine Inlet. It was hard to come
back without a cooler full of keepers. One really cold day (it was in
the 50s), my wife caught two nine pounders under the docks at our
favorite restaurant in St. Augustine.
