    • This is why deflation is so problematic.  Does anybody want to make an offer this week, when they can wait a month and make a lower offer?  You only know where the bottom is in hindsight.

    • I bought a used Malibu in CT about 10 years ago. A Crew member looked at it for me (just one reason this site is awesome).  I had UShip tow it here without issue.  I had the owner send me copies of the title, his Drivers License, registration, insurance card, etc. The house where the boat was for inspection was the same address. All the data matched.  I decided to go with my gut and mail a cashier's check and it worked fine. These days not sure i'd do that again, LOL.

       

    • The fire sale is accelerating across the boating industry.  Check out this Instagram ad from MC today...

    • I know some of you guys have bought & sold boats out of your home state, couple questions on logistics.  How did you handle the payment / receiving so both parties were protected?   Shipping- did most of you just hire someone off Uship to pull the boat on its own trailer?  Anyone have it put on a flatbed trailer, so you don't put all the wear & tear on your trailer & boat?  That would seem the preferable way.  Thanks       

    • I recently had a brake dragging a little, to the point I could just feel it with tow vehicle  (Toyota Fortuner 2.8L turbo diesel). That rim & hub after 30km (20 miles) was noticably warm to touch but could  still easily keep hand on it. Tandem trailer. The other braked hub and the unbraked hubs all just slightly warm. Like skin temp. I locked out the brakes and drove the remaining 140km (90miles), checking temp several times. All four remained at just above skin temp. I think the alloy wheels help disapate heat.
