Accepting boat wanted requests, anybody wants boats ?

[Valv]

I am accepting any request for boats. I usually stay away from many, but I decided to try this.

If you need a boat, let me know size, type, and more important max price.
I have access to many used, and slightly used boats. Some are complete with motor and trailer, some no trailer, some no motor, and some no motor and trailer.
Also I can access many dented, damaged, and fixer uppers.
Examples from last year:

2002 Ranger 619VS: 14,000
2001 Lund ProV1800: $ 10,000
2003 Lund Fisherman 1700: $ 10,000
2003 Alumacraft Navigator165: $ 6,500
1978 Lund WC 14: $ 2,100
1986 Crestliner Nordic 20ft: $ 5,500
1991 VIP 18ft bass boat: $ 4,200
1981 SeaRay 26ft: Still for sale
1997 Crestliner Sportfish: $ 5,000
1991 Astro Fish&Ski 17ft : $ 5,100
Old Mark Twain: $ 450
Old Starcraft: $ 250
Lund 16ft: $ 1450

And many, many others.

If you need anything, just email me, I will enter you in my "request" list and will contact you when I have something you might be interested. Timeframe is now to next spring, that's usually when most of boats will be available to me.

Payment has to be made quickly and by cash or cashier's check.
If you reserve a boat, and I buy it for you, then change your mind, I will keep you responsible for your request, so if you decide you want it, it's yours, I will send an email with confirmation of purchase, your reply will be a binding contract.

Let me know what do you think, and don't list your request here on forum, just send me an email.

And for whoever might think this is not a legitimate business, or something "fishy", just check some of my sales on this forum, or come and see my records.

I can vouch for Valv, he runs a very busy marine salvage business with TONS of stuff boaters use, want, and NEED.

The PRICE is definitely right.

[moby1]

I have not purchased anything from VALV, YET. I know some people who have and have heard he is top notch stand-up guy. I am waiting for my chance :+)

[NotoriousBLM]

Hi Valv,

What kind of shape was that 619 in? Did it have a 200 Opti on it??

[danny berg]

I can vouch for Val, I purchased a bow mount from him and he is a straight shooting type of guy. I always check his HSOforum and every now and then send him an e-mail to see if he has something I am looking for.

[Valv]

The 619 was brand new, it was licensed to Lindy Little Joe, Inc (you know who they are) and was dropped on ground from trailer, it had just few cracks on rear bottom corner, and was fixed very well, I put an Evinrude 175.

The boat was my dreams', I used it twice, wanted to keep it, but couldn't afford to loose sale.

do you have any used out board motors? i have a 89 force 125hp that runs great, but would like to upgrade to 150hp motor, could we work out a trade let me know thanks again valv.

jim

[Valv]

I usually stay away from motors, I do get some once in a while, but I try not to, since I am not the best mechanic in this world, and many times I've got "burned".

Hey Val, how often do you get your HSOforum updated with products?

[marbleye]

I'm curious about the 1800 pro V. What did that come with,(motor) and what kind of damage did it have.

[fishin789]

got anything in a 12' aluminum v hull with trailer cheap?
preferably one that doesn't leak or need a lot of repair.

[Sand Burr]

Came with an autopilot up front, Lowrance 350s with gps locator, 5 seats including the big deluxe one, 150 optimax w/ss prop and a new shorelander trailer.

Minor damage to the bottom corner of the boat that actually no one has even recongnized as of yet.

I have put some money into the motor but saved thousands to get into a boat of this size.

[robbies6]

Do you deal in outboards also?

[MossBoss95]

Hey I am looking for an 1850 Sportfish, preferably an newer model say 2002-04 with a 150 4 stroke. Let me know if you come across anything.

Thanks....

[Valv]

MossBoss, I asked to send me an email regarding requests, or we will fill up the whole forum with this.

I might have something coming up.

Please everybody, save bandwidth and don't post requests here, also I accept only inquiries for boats, not motors or parts, for these you can come and look at my inventory.

Thanks

the VIP 18ft Bass Boat caught my eye. Any info or pics on it would be great.

Val is great to work with and what he says is the truth. The 7.5 motor that I just pickup from him on Friday ran like a champ on Saturday. He is a class act!!

[MonsterMechanic]

I can say that Val is a true class act. You will find the BEST deals around. He is straight forward and has a lot of knowledge when it comes to putting a boat together. He has come to my rescue also. GAVE me a prop one day after I ran onto a rock pile near his house.

Val, I know you don't deal with motors too often, but I'm on the look out for something between 10-25hp for my 14ft. fishing boat. Would like to have something by the Labor Day weekend. I don't want to spend much more than $400. Anything less would be great. Let me know.

I'm looking for a used scissor type pontoon trailer. Nothing real fancy, but usable. I only intend to use it 2-3 times per year.
