Default 2 Greatest Days

I've heard many people say the greatest two days in their life is when they buy a boat and when they sell a boat. That must be true because when people sell their boat they put SOLD by it. Why not just delete the add? Do they think that since they paid for x amount of weeks they should just leave their add up? I'm just venting, I'm in the marked for a boat and am just a little annoyed sifting through all the boats that are sold.

I like checking the boat ads just for fun, and I noticed a very high number of SOLD ads. Not sure why, I think the moderators need to clean it up, but I'm not sure.

On a positive note, you can do more market research with all the boat adds that are sold already.

I've sold a few boats on WC, if I remember right you don't get to delete it? Only get to mark as sold? (I could be wrong, been a couple years)

I just sold my boat after 20 years and it wasn't a happy day.

The only good thing about it was the fact that I sold my Tyee for $300 more than I paid for it in 1999. Go LUND!!

Now, to find a smaller replacement.

The three best days for me were: The day I bought my first boat. Then gave it to my son. The day I bought my second boat. Then gave it to my son. The day I bought my third boat. What's next?

I agree, back in 09 when the great recession hit and the wife and I were not working and even wondering if we can afford the house payments I ended up selling our truck camper and my boat on the same day. Talk about a depressing day that was.
