    The activity referred to has a word that rhymes/sounds similar to your expression - or was that a typo?

    IMP 220 Sports Fisherman

    Greetings all, I need some assistance please. I have moved out of the US and left my 1989 IMP 21' 220 Sports Fisherman and trailer in Ohio. I want to sale it and was hoping someone could advise me how much I should ask for it. The boat is in good shape ready to be used on the water and it comes with GPS,Fish Finder, Rod holders.


    Thanksin advance for any help you provide.

    Load it and ship it with you?

    Prospect is not bright economics wise - bear bubble about to collapse to a true bear market listen here http://www.financialsense.com/fsn/main.html by downloading the files (right click on your preferred format and "save link as" to your preferred directory for listening at your convenience - a bit verbose - actually quite verbose - but generally has a good overall reputation for saying it as it is - and not all that ******** and "motherhood statements" found on the major media networks...

    Hes already moved --if I read his post correctly. I suppose he wants an offer from someone in Ohio.

    If I lived near I would certainly make him an offer, but Im not.

    WTF? I was talking about US having another thread to invade and also talk about the boat for sale - we could charge him "appearance money" for leading our "followers" to the new site to see what we were doing this time:D:D:D:D

    oh
    well I was kinda spilling over onto this thread which was supposed to be on economics influencing boating

    so I deleted some stuff anyway
    no worries

    no he was just asking a question mate
    no worries
    now he will hopefully get his boat up on the for sale page ( if there is one )
    and have done himself a favor by asking
    although a commission would buy a few pints

    where did that guy go

    It is only a matter of time. And sailors are also a perfect excuse. There was a talk in my (swiss) company that when on board, we all carry bracelets with mini radio-transmitters. In case of trouble (sinkin' ship) satellite detection could trace sailors in heavy seas...One step before chipping...

    So true. Many people still believe in the old ways and some miraculous change on the markets. The problem is with production outsourced to poorer countries, the "rich" (like usa) have now %^*@ all to fall back to. And only production makes money in times of crisis. Usa is now deep in money printing, just as England. And Iceland, poor frozen herrings...

    Sheep, that is now an undeserved compliment to humans and an insult to those noble animals. Sorry, sheep.

    On a lighter note, I'll be retiring in a ripe old age of 36 after this last voyage, to my organic farm. I have started it few years ago and it has taken off nicely. I do not need this **** any more (sea sickness and sailors stories how we "never" get sick. What a bull.)

    The first to raise his/her hand and says that s/he had never bee seasick is a *&%^&$ liar. Or has never been on a sea 4 or higher. I'm still dirty on that hurricane last month off the Oz coast...three days of 15-20 metres deep sea waves...When I finally set my feet on the dirt for good, I'll show the finger to the sea.

    As much as I love it deeply for the memories...
