I imagine Dave will say all this in his e-mail. You haven't given enough information to pique any interest. The things you highlighted <blockquote id="quote"><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica" id="quote">quote:<hr height="1" noshade id="quote">Needs some minnor cosmetic work and a good cleaning<hr height="1" noshade id="quote"></font id="quote"></blockquote id="quote"> aren't exactly enticing. And, remember, this is a 31 year old boat.

You might want to re-post your ad and mention some positives about the boat, photos are always helpful and, mention a starting price rather than saying <blockquote id="quote"><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica" id="quote">quote:<hr height="1" noshade id="quote"> will take anything for it.<hr height="1" noshade id="quote"></font id="quote"></blockquote id="quote"> That gives the impression it is ready for the landfill. Nobody's going to pay to discard a few thousand pounds of trash that has the shape of a hull and keel. Hope this helps . If it is in bad condition, you might consider parting it out.

Indeed, that's much of the message I sent. Properly presented, a C-25 is a well-known, sought-after boat. As it stands right now, somebody has perhaps the opportunity of a lifetime--only because this one might not be getting its due.

Jump on it folks--before he gets his act together!
