Anyway, my suggestion if you are looking for a bargain would be to
contact marinas and ask if they have any lien sales coming up. A lot of
the boats are really rough but you will be getting 50-90% off. The
marinas will ask you to leave, not politely, to eliminate the
possibility of the old owner showing up and causing a scene. You will
give most of the money you saved back to things like a haul out, marine
survey, and moving the boat but you can come out ahead if you pick
right.

Maybe I'll give this a shot. I ran into this problem before when trying
to price out marina's in the area. How does one find the numbers for
marinas within a couple hundred miles? Is there a marina listing
somewhere that is relatively complete?

When I was looking for this before I really had no luck.

Thanks for the info!
