Re: NEED A TOW ASAP

You people are falling for a total fraud, one of the oldest tricks.... you know, the guy at the gas station asking everyone for five bucks to buy gas to get home?

Think about it....

1. The OP...

OK, let's try this approach....

We love Italy, but would prefer to spend our winter in Palma, Mallorca visiting our CF friends Weavis and Prairiechicken. Right now we're stuck in San...

Re: NEED A TOW ASAP

So... why don't you move your boat to a cheaper dock in the manner I outlined a few pages back? Instead of asking others to pay your high dock fees. Three months ago we shpped for the cheapest best...

Re: NEED A TOW ASAP

I see my outboard advice was not appreciated, I'll remember both remarks.

Re: NEED A TOW ASAP

OK, now we're getting somewhere.:rolleyes: 'Seems like your story keeps changing (eg. "tow to open water" has changed to "tow only to someplace we can work on the boat")

So... why not purchase a...

Re: NEED A TOW ASAP

I've offered up some very reasonable advice (unlike most others) on how you can actually achieve your goal of bringing your boat back home.

Please tell us why you cannot return or sell your $3000...

Re: NEED A TOW ASAP

Why would you purchase a $3000 radar and decide not to spend any money on a survey or sea trial? That doesn't make any sense. Every bank I know of requires a marine survey prior to funding a boat...

Re: NEED A TOW ASAP

I already did; by advising them to sell or return the $3000 radar (they don't need right now) then rent a slip and fix the engine with the money. Return the sails too if necessary.... and pull up...

Re: NEED A TOW ASAP

No.... what's actually out of order is the OP buying sails and a new $3000 before test driving their boat. IMHO.

Sell or take back the radar, rent a slip, then fix the engine and quit whining. ...

No not quite.... if you've been a member of this forum over the past six years, then you'd already know that I'm the guy who seems to learn everything via the "School of Hard Knocks," then shares my...

Re: NEED A TOW ASAP

When we purchased our Hunter 450, our situation was the same. I don't remember whining about it and looking for some free towing. We immediately shopped the San Fran Bay area for the best mooring...

Re: NEED A TOW ASAP

I'm not the one with the brand new $3000 radar looking for a free tow. :whistling:

Re: NEED A TOW ASAP

Lash a dinghy (your dinghy if you have one) and use it to tow your own boat. Quit looking for others to solve your problem.
