Response to questions to make the ad due better. Thank you as I was not able to handle this boat after losing my spouse and glad it got to a couple to enjoy. Boats need to be on the water. Your quick response when I had questions was very helpful. Loved the boat but happy to get it to a new home. One issue only was this pesky purchaser that dragged things on and then I got back to real boat buyers. Most want me to contact them by their cell and go past your easy-to-use messages, which I used with no issue.

Wishing you all the best, and thank you for trusting Boat Trader with the sale.
