Hi All, I've been thinking of putting on a boating swap meet here in Detroit in January or February. That thinking got me to thinking that we should have a garage sale here in the forum. We could all list all the goodies we don't need any longer in the Swap Meet forum. We could sell, swap, or trade. What do you think Cheers.

It is so Val, but I am talking about something that is a little more organized. I know I have a hand full of stuff that I never thought of listing, but I would if I knew there was others doing the same. Just a thought. Cheers.

This is a really bad idea, first I will never sell anything... I might need it, and second, I will end up buy all of everyone else's stuff because I might need it too.

Hi Al, I am going to do the same. Don't know how much I'll have but it is worth the time to shed stuff. I heard a saying the other day "we don't buy a house for the room WE need, but for the room our STUFF needs". Cheers.

OK this is a fine idea but lets plan it for Thanksgiving or some other winter vacation period so we have time to do it right. Who wants to catalog stuff now when we should be sailing.

That is a good idea Frank. Also, there are some things I will be replacing this winter and that just means more stuff. Cheers.
