My bad oso, and different interior.

**h2oMag** · 09-24-2011 12:01 AM

Those pic's have been used many times before in scams.

I have seen it once for sale in Wisconsin, with the palm trees in the pic??? This Mag was recently sold on ebay for around 18k. I do not think the new owner would take that kind of loss, BEWARE.

Thanks, I'll notify Craigs List.....

There was a 38 Scarab in Indianapolis, Salt Lake City, ????? Just did the same thing on.....

What gets me, when you go through the deal checking, they sure have it down to sounding legit.....

Bud, I'm surprised you haven't bought it.
You have a little room in the stable now.

**Bud Weisner** · 09-27-2011 11:14 PM

Trying to clean out the stable...started with 10,now down to 5. Half way there. Bud

I still have the boat available. There are no structural or electrical problems with this boat. It is in outstanding condition . Both hull and interior in nice condition .No mechanical issues with this engine at all. It starts easily and restart easily all day. It has ALWAYS been properly maintained and never run hard or abused. Trailer is in very nice condition and the tires are almost new with plenty of tread left. The seats and all the interior are in like new condition and has no fading, tears, stains ,mildew etc. It has a clear and clean title, free of all liens and encumberances.
Unfortunately I am not home and I can't sell it myself because my sister had a baby and she had some complications so she is still under medical care. Her husband asked me if I can come and take care of things around the house until she gets better. This is no problem for me as far as the transaction is concerned because I was selling this through OOT anyway. I believe you know what OOT is if you buy and sell online often, if you don't I'll be glad to walk you through the process. Let me know if you are still interested
