I'd say general discussion is the proper forum.
I know the headache of a long distance purchase.
I contracted a purchase in January and wasn't able to get my surveys/seatrial until mid May due to the long winter they had.
Getting the boat from New Hampshire to Texas was the easiest part of my transaction thanks to OSO member Pat at OSP tranport. If your looking for a good service and he's local at the moment you can't go wrong utilizing his service. He's based up in Maryland but hauls boats all over the northeast and southeast. He quoted me right to the minute when he'd be at our marina over 2000 miles away 2 days prior when he picked up the boat. WOW !!!
Post some pic's, we'd love to see this boat.
See ya,
Kelly

I know where you can buy a cary 50....lol...getting cold feet. Biggest boat I've owned prior to this one was a 25 foot center console. Getting a little nervous about this purchase. My wife and kids are driving me nuts to keep it but I'm getting that "what have I gotten myself into" feeling.
