:yell:It is with a heavy heart that I must part with my pride and joy checkmate. This economy really sucks. Details are on the attached link as well as some pics and a couple of vids at my user cp.
I was really hoping to join the Lake Norman get-together but that looks doubtful right now.
If any of you are seriously interested I will reply to your pm's.
As soon as finances allow I will be buying another check, hopefully I can buy back the one I am forced to sell now, that is how much I love it.

Yeah, tell me about it. I lost my daughter and my job last year.
Life's neccessities were taken from me last year now I have to
dispose of my only escape from reality to pay bills.
As stated in the powerboatlistings add I have a tow vehicle that
I will throw in if someone pays the full asking price. I can't see myself
giving it away but I am willing to take reasonable offers.
 
I too, am sorry for your loss. I'm not sure I could survive something like this. You will be in my prayers. When in bad times I depend on friends , family and God to get me through. I hope you have all 3.
God bless
Bruce.

Yes B.G.R. I have all three. Thank you
On a good note I have a grand daughter due to be born in early August. My first grandchild. I told my wife and daughter that I will have her on water skis by age 2 so another boat is a must.
It is sweet blessings like that that are keeping me hopeful for the future.
 
Sorry to hear Sclemons, I didn't know. Congrats on grandchild though. Hope you can keep the Mate, but wondering how many of us may have to sell because of present conditions.
 
thank you Jimway. I have a few things in the pipeline but they are not likely to materialize soon enough. whats really going to bite is if one of my contracts comes through one day after selling the boat:brickwall:

Well I'm gonna pray that something comes through for ya really quick!! With all the hard times you are having, you need to be able to keep your boat (especially one as sweet as that) to make it a little easier. Sorry to hear about your daughter, but on the flip side congrats on the grand daughter!! Hope things turn around for ya!!
 
price reduced to 16,500
same deal with the tow vehicle
had her out yesterday and she ran well, sounded sweet, and put a brief smile on my face

I was looking forward to sampling your supply of southern comfort
the female variety as well as the liquid (just kidding on the female variety, the wife would not like that)

My wife is great with me looking. She'll even point a few out to me if she thinks I haven't noticed them myself. She's too good to risk losing by doing more than look though. We're going through these tough times together.
 
I am sorry to hear of your loss. I wish I had the money, I would buy your boat, let you store it for me(and sneak a ride or 2), and then sell it back to ya when you got back on your feet! Keep your chin up dude, life is precious and they make these boats every day.
 
Nice of you to make the offer Boatman but the boat has been sold.
sold it locally and saw it on the lake yesterday, that was kind of good and bad at the same time. I think the buyer needs more seat time to drive it to it's potential, I think he should give me the keys to show him how to hit mid 80's. my best gps was 84.5 while my replacement boat will max at 35, but at least I'm on the water
