Well...I took the advice of you smart B-W boat owners..and didn't lose my $1475 deposit to a female crook (or was it a male crook when all is known?) who claimed she was a Marine Drill Sgt.!

Saying...a "person" sent me a personal email this morn with a Ebay looking page with a "private offer" to purchase a sweet 2003 B-W 130 Sport w/40hp Merc & trailer for only $2475..and I just about bit on it.

But, I called Ebay late tonight and through one of their reps was able to hear that the Ebay offer she emailed me was fake..the Ebay selling agent was fake..and the item number was fake!

So, I'll take that savings and put it on needed electrical parts for my old 1995 B-W 14' Rage Jet which I've enjoyed for over 15 years..from Annapolis' Spa Creek/Chesapeake Bay..to Ft Meyer/Sannibel/Captiva to all over the East Coast (Hilton Head Island, SC now) and lakes in NC & SC.

Thanks again Guys for saving my funds. Cheers, BiLL
