You must be a mind reader. I'll need wheels. Not for Lake Lanier, but
for sailing 400 miles down I-85 to I-65 to I-10 and home.
Thanks,

I'd bet boats are going for give-away prices on dry LAke LAnier.

Lake Lanier's not dry.

Let's not confuse the issue with facts. Harry was just trying to to
mess with me, but between the drought, the time of the year, and the
mortgage mess, it is a good time to be a buyer, and a terrible time to
be a seller.- Hide quoted text -

Yes, I just recently bought a sail boat, and I agree that it's a
damned good time to buy a boat here! I'm thinking about a newer bass
boat, too.

Hold off if you can for another month or two - that is unless you
stumble across something you can't pass up.

Why, you think they'll go down more? What if the lake level starts
coming back up?!

I know of a two year old loaded Ranger Z-21 w/250 Merc Optimax, less
than 50 hours, for $30K and if the boat doesn't sell by the end of
January, it can be had for $27K. Guy will sell it for what he owes if
necessary.

Take a look at Craigslist for the Atlanta area, there are a lot of any
kind of boat for sale here, from bass boats to houseboats!

And there are more and more boats like it coming up every day -
Triton, Stratos - heck, I even saw a Gambler at a price I even thought
about.

I don't get out enough to spend a big bunch of money on a bass boat
anymore.

Out of curiosity, what kind of bass boat do you run now?- Hide quoted text -

I've got a Chaparral with a 135 Evinrude. I'd like to get something a
little newer, and with a few more features. The Chaparral doesn't seem
as stable when you are fishing on the side of it and some of the other
makes.
