BOATS & GOODS FOR
SALE:
Webmaster's Note
It has been brought to our attention that there
are a number of bogus/hoax/goofy offers being emailed to boat
(and auto) owners
with items for sale on the Internet. We personally experienced
this last year, whereby a broker 'representing a client' wanted
to buy our boat. He emailed us, asking our bottom price -he then
sent us a cheque - made out for $7000. more than the asking price
(generous!) drawn on a bank in Minnesota
- it looked real, hand written envelope,
bank 'cashier's cheque' etc. He asked that we return the $7000.
to his agent to arrange for transportation of the vessel. (Too
funny!) Of course, the entire transaction was bogus. We haven't
heard from him since. These emails come from free addresses (ie:
Hotmail, Yahoo) because they are untraceable. This is the 3rd
such "transaction" request we've heard of - not all
from our site - but it does seem to be happening. Hopefully no
one is
really gullible enough to fall for it!
Remember the old saying, if it looks like a duck,
walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it most likely is a
duck. Quack! |

$825.00 or all three as a package, with factory templates,
for $2,250.00.
The boats have been in dry storage, stacked together and standing on their
transoms since the 1950s! They are 14’4” L x 63.5” W with
a depth of 28”. The transom width is 49”, weight 405 lbs. and the
hull is rated for 40 HP. The three hulls come complete with transom and a wild

Paceships were manufactured in Canada by Industrial Shipping Co. Ltd in Mahone

- HELP WANTED!!: Advice
needed re: Hesitating Motor!! We have a 1960's, 20ft. Owens
cruiser with a 120 hp
Mercruiser 1A motor (one
of the first). Intermittently the motor hesitates (RPM's drop off
by a couple hundred and then return to normal). This happens more
dramatically and more often the more throttle you give. Carb has
been rebuilt, tune up done, head rebuilt. Does anyone have an idea
how this problem might be solved as it is a bit of a nuisance? If
so, we would really appreciate hearing from you. We love the boat
and are trying to return it to its original glory. Please contact
Geoff, at either 705-653-2623 or by
email.
