finding a used boat
Is there a good website to find used boats? I am in central Indiana, FWIW.
Thanks!RS |

| If you're not looking for anything flashy and just want to get on the water
at minimal cost, I have a 1977 Thunderbird S-18 that might suit you. The
whole long story is here:

installment if you want to know why I'm thinking of selling.) |

| What size and type of used boat are you looking for? Small to modest sized used boats for sale in your area can be found at
http://indianapolis.craigslist.org/boa/ |

| yachtworld.com will have nearly all the brokerage boats- but only
brokerage boats- so if you are looking for something rather small or
modestly priced it is unlikely to show up there. Private parties often advertise on Craigslist (typically the real el-
cheapo "garage sale" sort of fixer uppers- but there are exceptions). Boat Trader now owns Yachtworld (if you can't beat 'em, buy 'em) and
has started another site that accepts private party advertising:
www.boats.com Then there is always traderonline.com |

| to change the subject a little. Saw on tonight's news where someone posted
an ad on Craigslist that everything in a house was available for free.
People showed up removed windows, sinks, etc. Craigslist says the person
has to get a court order to find out who posted the ad. The owner of the
rental figures was the last tenant that got evicted. |

| this is a good start, thanks! fyi: I want a 17-20' runabout or cuddy for under 10k, preferably under 5k
but for the right boat, I'd step up. living in central Indiana, i am
realistic about how often i will use it... maybe 6-10 times a year. I work
most Saturdays & the nearest lake is Freeman/ Schafer both small dirty &
small , 1/2 hour away. Raccoon is about twice as far & also pretty small but
at least clean. :-) thanks for all the replies |

| I bought both my boats on Ebay. (in the fall when the market is
slumped) And have been very satisfied with my purchases. |

| Also one thing about Ebay, is that you can type in your zip code, and
"distance nearest first" and target boats closest to you. It worked
for me... |

| Did you buy that from a guy in Derby, Kansas by any chance? Eisboch |

| Why would anyone need a boat in Derby, Kansas? P.S. Drove an F350 diesel yesterday. Long bed. Won't fit in my garage,
would have to live in the old barn. I could cut a few feet off the bed,
I suppose... |

| Why do you want/need a big, diesel truck anyway? I bought mine because it
was the only SRW truck that could tow what I wanted to tow at the time.
(Don't like "dualies"). Now that I don't need to tow anything that heavy I am seriously thinking of
replacing it ... if I can find something I like. Eisboch |
