Craigslist Gold!
OK, folks, we've all seen it - that "special" boat that pops up on Craigslist. You know the one, ratted out interior, custom (paint) brushed graphics, almost matching engines and oil changed just this decade - get it NOW for only $50K! And it will run 190 in reverse! This thread is to preserve and share those ads that are just gold.
I'd propose that the following guidelines:
1. Include a link to the original ad
2. Cut and paste the ad into a quote in your post, on the off chance that the original ad goes away - we want to preserve the humor for future generations!
3. If you can include pics, great, if not we'll just use our imagination
Happy shopping!
Here is an example to kick us off:
Sorry, no pics of the "mint" interior, but I'm sure it is just as awesome as the rest of the boat.

I get my wife to send me a text message w/the approval🤓
A few yrs back she came home from work to see a new/used 21’ Checkmate in the driveway.
She says, “wow, gorgeous boat, who’s is that?”
Me,
”it’s ours”.
Her, “no it’s not”.
Me,
”yes it is”.
Her,
”no it’s not”.
Me,
”yes it is”.
Her,
”no it’s not”.
Me,
”you said I could”.
Her,
”No I didn’t”
Me,
”yes you did”.
Her,
”no I didn’t”.
Me,
”yes you did.
Here, look”.
And I handed her my phone (had been waiting on her) showing a text from her that said,
“you can buy the Checkmate”.
Her, after reading my text she shouted,
”DAMNIT”!
And walked in the house 🤓
Yes there was alcohol involved and it only worked once.
