What's disappointing is that Bubbles hooked so many of you into them.

Next he'll be bragging about the new bone china and Waterford crystal that
he just bought. And everyone will be jumping up to take the hook.

Max, the China (it isn't) is actually Seal bone and was originally in
the Museum of Natural History's Frozen Tundra exhibit in the late 60's.
My father gave it to us when we were married. Suzanne doesn't like it,
so it will be included in an auction after my father dies one day far
off. We had it appraised at 30-35K. We also have a Egyptian pottery
piece which we will probably donate to a museum It's insured for 100K
and can be seen in several books.

Hooked you faster than a bluegill hungry for a worm.

Cha-ching.

I agree with you, Max. It's gotten so bad that I don't have time to keep up
anymore. Lost my "fun" with the newsgroup because of the "bubble trolls".

I know there are many here that enjoyed the banter, until it has become
"below the belt" so to speak. Just read Snotty or Ganz.

Yep, but those bowls are worth more than your boat. Hey, I notice you
never answered about your funny claim that your boat costs what mine
does!
Now THAT was a hook!

Yes, I did. You claimed my boat was a Seafarer, which it isn't. As usual
you were clueless. Apparently you chose to "miss" my response.

My boat not only cost more than yours, it's now worth far more than yours.
Yours is depreciating, while mine is appreciating, and demand for gorgeous,
supremely-equipped examples like Clover mean she's sold before I make the
decision to part with her.

Well at least some good came out of it.

The last SeaSprite sold on Yacht World sat for a very long time. The
asking
price was 57,500. It finally sold for $42,500.

You, too, appear to be clueless, BB.

There were only 46 SS34s built, and the majority were owner-finished boats.
The few factory-finished ones were mostly earlier numbers, below 20, and
they were considerably superior to the owner-finished examples for a variety
of reasons. They command substantially higher prices as a rule, of course
condition can be a mitigating factor. Mine is factory and exceptionally
well-equipped, including all the electronic bells and whistles, such as
radar, color graphic chart plotter/GPS, autopilot, sail instruments, etc.
The list of options and upgrades would take several pages of 8x10 paper to
list. And the boat's condition is bristol.

But of course nothing is worth more than someone is willing to pay for it.
I currently have two anxious would-be buyers, both with cash in hand,
who've offered me more than I paid for it, which is fortunate because the
BUC prices reflect boats that have sold over a period of time, and all of
them have been owner-finished examples with limited equipment and ample
problems. Good examples of any boat sell quickly--poor examples take
forever to sell, but eventually do.

I hear that there has been so much attention being paid,
and mention
made, that BB is thinking about coming back to ASA. He
didn't realise
that everyone would miss him so much. He thought they
would be glad he
left. That's apparently not the case. Keep yapping.


Oh, so you *do* know our resident asshole.
Tell me, do you 'talk' to him very often?
Does he answer you back?
Ever get into an argument with 'him'?

Bwahahahaha
