I responded and she/he/it responded immediately to my email which made me suspious and offered to buy my boat sight unseen for 13,900.00. Something is just not right so I searched google before I did anything except email. I found other post talking about a scam. I did not loose any money because I did some fact checking first am glad I did.

It has to be a scam because no one would buy a used boat from a picture and offer full price.
