Caution Todd, a boat that's been neglected is bound to have LOTS of
suprises...

Understood. Still, as long as the engine does not blow up, I think I can
handle most anything else. I'm really looking for a boat for a lower price
that I might be able to put some elbow grease into. It's just the dealer
listing it at $4000 that is throwing me off. A $2500 offer seems to low for
them to take. But that is really what it's worth. No?

Like a car dealer with a used car. Most times it will be way over
what it is worth until the ral hagling starts.
I would have no qualms about offering a dealer 1/2 what they are
asking. Especially if it is cosmetically deficient.

What can thay do but counteroffer or say no?
