Going, going, but not yet...
 
....gone.

I have three prospective buyers showing up early next week to look over
my Parker 2520XL. I don't know any of these folks. If anyone reasonable
here is looking for a Parker of this style, let me know, and I'll make a
deal for $5000 less than one of the prospects seems willing to pay.

Because I'd prefer a nice boat go to a nice guy...a nice guy I know.
I've done this before. In Jacksonville, I sold a nice SeaPro to a police
officer I knew down there for about 10% less than another offer I had at
the same time. No fool I...when I visit in Jax, he takes me fishing on
his boat. He sold the SeaPro a few years later and bought a larger
center console boat.

My 2520XL is a great boat if it is the kind of boat you want. Women like
it, too, because it has a private area with a electric flushing toilet,
a relative rarity on a boat of its size and type.

Gotcha.

What will you be replacing the Parker with?

A smaller center console fishing boat, I believe.

I am selling my car, if anyone reasonable here is looking for a new car let
me know. I will make a deal of $10,000 less than one of the prospects
seems willing to pay.

This is a standing room only offer so don't pass this offer up.

Good luck. One of my prospective buyers called and showed up today with
a roll of "large" for a deposit, so if the sale sticks, it looks as if I
sold my 25' Parker two days after I made a serious decision to do so.
