I don't. *Never been to a "Going-out-of-business sale."
But it seems the those I've talked to that have gone to such didn't
have much good to say about it.
Business inventory reminds me of futures trading somewhat.
When on the losing end you hate to take a loss and sometimes
don't face reality - so increase your loss.
That part about the stuff going back to the dealer network to be sold

I purchased our one and only new boat from a Chris Craft dealer going
out of business. * Got a helluva deal on it and sold it for more than
we purchased it for.

Way to go, Jimh.

Why thank you John.

Question.. Did you ever tow your kids without gear? Did you ever, I
mean ever, let one of your kids drive the boat, be honest now? Were
any or you "too many times to count" sports related injuries ever
happen while boating, maybe traveling faster than my kids bikes,
without any safety gear but a lifejacket? Cause, my kid wears
waaaaaaayyyyy more protective gear riding than the law calls for, can
you say the same?

could be true. I went to boat dealer going out of business sale and they
forgot to put a reserve price on the boats. At least 1 boat. Guy got it
for about 10% of value. After that they stated there was a reserve value.-

Cherry Lake in the Sierras. Weekends have been to car races. Off shortly

Question.. Did you ever tow your kids without gear?

If gear means life jackets the answer is no. They were not pulled on
skiis or in a tube until they were older. And they wore their jackets
while in the boat (heads up jackets when they were young and did not
know how to swim).

Did you ever, I
mean ever, let one of your kids drive the boat, be honest now?

Of course. Both have passed boating safety classes and carry
certification. I taught them how to drive and maneuver the boat once
they were of age.


Were
any or you "too many times to count" sports related injuries ever
happen while boating, maybe traveling faster than my kids bikes,
without any safety gear but a lifejacket?


No. And they were not sports related (except for my daughters broken
wrist while playing basketball).

Cause, my kid wears
waaaaaaayyyyy more protective gear riding than the law calls for, can
you say the same?

Why do I care?

Boating is very dangerous, according to Harry, you should have been
arrested by the cop that had the social working riding with him.

any or you "too many times to count" sports related injuries ever
happen while boating, maybe traveling faster than my kids bikes,

No. * And they were not sports related (except for my daughters broken

I go midweek on boats out of Seaforth Landing. Took my other boat down
years ago. To much hassle. Senior rate and is only about $75 for a 3/4 day
to the Coronado Isl includes MX permit and live bait. 1/2 day local is
probably $45 now with fuel surcharge. We have friend in Mission Beach, so
do some surfing and fishing, etc. If the Albacore are in 1 day range I will
take an overnight boat once.
