Re: Post the Worst "For Sale" Picture You've Seen.

Am I mistaken, or is that one of those "toothpick" thingies on the nav station?



Cause that's nasty.

Or clever... it might be some kind of very clever navigational aid... something to do with marking your position on the charts... I'm going to try it.

Re: Post the Worst "For Sale" Picture You've Seen.

Okay, the toothpick thingie is a little nasty. But come on. You want to talk nasty? I've seen pictures of a head that clearly was not flushed after its last use. Now THAT'S nasty!

Unless your head is spotlessly clean, put the lid down before you take the picture. And, you know what? Even if it IS spotlessly clean, put the lid down!

The toothpick thingy looks like a small battery powered lantern to me... not too nasty.

"Has been burnt on the back end." That's a little bit of an understatement!

That's a really good example of the old saying that "the most expensive boat you'll ever get is the one you get for free."

Boat: So many boats to choose from. Would prefer something that is not an AWB, and that is beachable...

That one is advertised as ideal for the handy person...

Build and sails like a brick...

But at least it has a Mercedes engine!

Yes, I believe that is the amount of money you will get for picking it up. I think they do not want to pay more for removing it from its resting place.

55 foot boat has been unused for a while. Could use a little cleaning because of a little mold.
