Kevin, Used boats in the Seattle area (you have a UW - Seattle E-mail address)can be found in the Seattle Times/PI, section 714 in the classifieds. If you pick up the paper by 7am each morning and look through it you have a reasonable chance of being the first caller on any of the better boats that go for under $500 - they are usually sold by 9am. I have bought 6 boats that way over the last few years and it has worked well. I may know of a few boats for sale, and will try to pass on the information later. -Saul At 01:53 PM 7/31/98 -0700, K.
