One of my best transactions. Great communication. Owner described DVD correctly and even has a description of it attached to the DVD. Price was perfect and DVD arrived in good condition. When I played it, it was in perfect shape. I will buy from buyer in the future and recommend him to others.

  • Review Mate Best Boats to Build or Buy

    Superior book with lots of examples. Very easy read and gives reasons for all his opinions. Excellent reference for the used boat buyer, even if you don't buy the exact boats listed, it gives details to look for in similar boats. Enjoyed it very much!
