Nice job Tom. I'd email the asshole that offered you $600 and let him know
that he let a nice boat slip thru his fingers. --Mike "Short Wave Sportfishing" wrote in message ... Sold the Halman and got my asking price. Boat buyers are great!! :) |

At this point nothing because I've got to have my hip replaced this fall, so no sail boats until after that gets done.

Where will the Halman end up? His wife is from Nova Scotia - he's from Maine - right up at the border. Somewhere up the tip of Maine - I have to look on his card and it's in the office. His brother has one and his Dad owned one and apparently there are several in the marina where this one will be kept. He was very knowledgable about the Halman and pretty much nailed everything that could go wrong with the boat over time and what needed to be done to get this one in perfect condition. He knew his stuff, no BS and he gave me exactly what I asked. I'm sorry to see it go, but I didn't have the time for it not to mention all the shoulder problems and my impending joint replacement. |

A Sandpiper 565 or a Catalina 18 are a great size for day sails and occasional weekenders. Just big enough to have a place to sleep and a pump out head if you plan on taking the wife along. You can always go ashore and stay a night at a hotel on occasion. If you planned on sailing singlehanded on fine afternoons in protected waters, a smaller open boat might do the trick. example CL16, Hunter 17 etc. Older guys like us may not appreciate those flat lasers for more than a few hours at a time. |

Well, after m uch consideration and presenting an offer that I thought was more than fair for that over priced floating box-on-a-hull Parker (My Ranger with the FICHT straight up for your Parker - you keep the Yamaha), I have reconsidered. There is no way in hell I would buy a wannabe Steiger clone. :) |

He has one of these in a slip beside Mrs.E's GB and I checked it out ... it's something I think you would like. The one here has the engine mounted on a jackplate. Impressive engine too. 275 horses, supercharged and very quiet. He told me I can try it out whenever I get the itch.

(black hulled Yellowfin 24) http://nplots.com/Documents/BB3w.JPG I agree with the black hull - that is slick looking. I like those Verados on a boat that size. I wouldn't turn one down if it was offered with a boat as a package. I would prefer ETECs, but that's a good second choice. My Ranger is technically a "bay" boat, but the hull is actually a Ranger 620 hull with a CC and T-top. It has a sharper bow entry than most bay boats. http://www.rangerboats.com/flash/spe...4&series=multi Ranger made them off the 620 for two years, dropped the 20 until 2005, then brought it back with this which is a completely different boat. http://www.rangerboats.com/flash/gal...ries=sal****er I don't like the styling of the new Bay Rangers. I get a lot of comments on my boat and they are always positive |

Purchased Friday in Oakland's China Town at the Delicious Feed Company. Been buying stuff there for years and never been disappointed. |

It can also be used for a trailer jack. Sometimes it's used to position the boat - you set the pole into the bottom to hold the boat in position. Handy in a tidal rip or on a flat to keep you from drifting too close to structure, the beach or such as that. |
