Saw this one on CL and looked like a member of the forums boat?? Beautiful boat, but nobody has replied to my request to come look at it.. Seems a little fishy?? It's really a shame how many scammers are on CL... Really have to keep your guard up!

That's what I thought too... The only thing different is the Logo on the transom. Really sucks when you get pumped to go buy a new boat, only to find out it's BS. Seems like CL is more scam than not these days :(

That is 100% Michael's boat. Even the van is his.
The logo on the back is on his as well. Those are his pics.

I'm using one of my dead emails to try and fish out the scammer. I fawking hate scammers.


DO NOT EMAIL HIM LETTING HIM KNOW WE KNOW. DO NOT EMAIL HIM TELLING ABOUT THIS THREAD. If and when we decide he's needs to be, we can all ban his post. But we can also get CL fraud on him to track the IP and block him from doing it again. So do not let him onto the fact we know he's full of shit.

That's what I thought.. Frickin Scammers!!!

I would love to find one as cherry as yours Mike! If he responds to me I will lead him on, and hopefully we can catch this d-bag! I hate getting my bubble burst by these scammers.

If anyone has any leads on a sunsport under 8K in the Colorado area, please let me know. I posted a wtb in the classifieds as well.

Yes I did tow with the van . It was a 2001 GMC with a 4.3 l and a 373 rear end. It did OK overall but I didn't feel comfortable on longer trips.
I now tow with a 2005 GMC Savanna 3500 373 rear end much better care free towing and it gets better gas mileage towing.

He's just phishing for emails. No response.


EVERYONE MAKE SURE TO CLICK SPAM ON CRAIGSLIST AND SHUT IT DOWN.

What do you guys think of this one? Definitely not a scammer...

Hopefully I can go check her out this week. Any idea how long the saltare is with the trailer tongue? Not sure I could fit it where the mastercraft s&s is parked.

That's a nice looking Saltare. Double check on that tower. I'm not sure it will fit. They should have fixed legs and the style of hull was different, so it would take some welding fabrication to make it work. I'd buy it for lower without the tower as I don't think it would work.

Great looking boat for sure. Make sure they have receipts on the engine and tranny. Your boat should be about 26' long on a trailer. I have a 30' bay, and with about 1.5' off the platform, I've got about 2-3 feet of room. So it's a big sucker.

Love the blue on it.
