There's no shortage of guys who want boats, there's just a shortage of those who want boats with money. I listed a 12ft Duranautic over the last winter, it had been up for two years with not takers for $400. The boat was in new condition but a 1971 model that had sat in a garage since the day it was bought. It still had its original receipt, manual, and life vests that it was sold with laying int he boat in a box. The 4hp Mercury motor that came with it was still in its original box never even opened. I kept the motor and sold the boat. It was listed for 23 months before it sold to someone who drove from Kentucky to get it right before Christmas of 2023. In the time it was listed I had people offer me all sorts of trades, but nothing but junk. old broken barbecue grills, snow tires, TVs, time share stays, and all sorts of scams. The guy who bought it said he couldn't find a boat in his area, so he made the drive, but when I searched that area I got dozens of them, all priced similarly.</blockquote>
