thank you lads for info had a look at that site, must say the boats are a lot cheaper over there, still that would depend if i could import one and how would i go about it, that 30 osprey is cheaper than the 28 over here, will have to look into it i think, anyway thanks again lads tight lines.

Justin , I just googled this boat and several came up. I am sure you have already seen them. lots of 2004 boats for around 79,000
Buy the boat you want. The flip is a gamble at best with todays market and the price of boats south of the border. Cash in on your savings and consider that your profit instead of working a flip. Boats are very tricky to sell up here. You will ask fair market value and attempt to make up the differance for what you originally purchased it for. You'll find that peole will still opt to go south and get their own savings rather than buy your boat. If you are planning on buying a jalopy and flipping it for under ten grand then thats one thing. But a high end ride will be tricky. I say search for your dream boat and snag it.
Leave the rest to real estate.
Either way good luck and let us know what happens.

A 12 foot tinner for the lake is my new dream boat. That post was from last year when the market was viable.

Hey TS - Try looking at Mastermarine.com they are located in Mt. Vernon WA and from what I understand the only licenced dealer for Ospreys in WA, ID, OR, and they have their inventory available online at their web site. We got our 26' there, and it wasn't cheap, but it was still a good deal. Especially when we looked what used ones were going for. We looked for 4-5 yrs before we found the deal we were looking for. But we were buying our last boat, we had worked out way up from a 1966 Sears tinner my dad gave me 15 yrs ago(still have it too ) We almost bought a 24', but had a chance to look at the 24 & 26 side by side at a boat show, changed our mind. MAN - two extra feet can cost a bundle. Take some time to road trip to Bellingham and tour the factory, it was simply amazing to see the boats being built. Gave us a whole new sense of security when the seas get rough. Good Luck with your search.
