Bought a boat on ebay. Drove from Delaware to Upstate New York to pick it up. Took 8 hours to get there 9 hours to get back.
Got a wicked deal. Less than half price for a three year old boat. The only negative is the seller was a moron. The asshole knew I was driving 8 hours to get there and 8+ hours back. Nothing was ready when I got there and it took four+ hours of waiting for his dumb ass to get everything together. My Question. Do I leave him Negative feedback on Ebay or not? Great Boat, Great Price Super Stupid Seller. Took it out on the bay today :-)

The boat is just a little 16' Bayliner with a 90 HP engine.Three years old, Owner has less than 50 hours on it. Looks like new, They have not changed any of the specs in the last three years. Selected Options: $443
My Price**: $14,993
Destination Charge: $679
My Price does not include destination charge.
With the 90hp option it's almost a $15,000 boat. I paid $6000 :-) It tops off around 60 mph
Pics can be seen here- http://www.bayliner.com/runabouts.asp?modelid=44194&year=2005&reqtype=1,9,23 A bigger boat would be cool but the bay here is very very shallow.

Nice little runabout.I'm the cabin-cruise type, but I used to do sport fish a fair bit, and overnight on the water. I would do it still if I had the time. -------------------- “I have noticed even people who claim everything is predestined, and that we can do nothing to change it, look before they cross the road.” “Intelligence is the ability to adapt to change.” --Dr. Stephen Hawking.
