Crystal Pierz Marine-Public Boat Auction 4/27/08

[bassNspear]

Public boat auction

If you’re on the prowl for a high-quality boat at a low price, cast your net at the world’s largest boat auction. Instead of wasting weeks trolling around the classifieds, you’ll have your prime pick of the skiffs, all in one place.

The auction’s a nifty place to sell, too. Bring in your used beauty, and she’s bound to get more hungry looks than Aunt Dorothy’s blue-ribbon chestnut fritters.

When is it?

It all kicks off Sunday April 27th. Bidder registration and boat preview opens at 9:00 AM, and the auction begins at 10:00.

If you’re selling a boat, the first thing you’ll need to do is pre-register. Once that’s taken care of, you’ll be asked to check-in time during one of the following dates:

• Friday April 25th: 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM

• Saturday April 26th: 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM

• Sunday April 27th: 7:00 AM to 8:00 AM

Our 200 lots are available on a first-come, first-serve basis.
