Re: [Paddlewise] Kayak for Sale Websites

I listed a couple boats on various newsgroups and websites for free.  A
couple of the websites, I later discovered,  had no way to remove them once
sold.  Many months later I'm getting emails from folks regarding the boats
which have long since found new homes.  I always respond to the emails since
I wouldn't like to be left hanging out there while looking to buy a boat.

If your listing a boat for sale, stick with newgroups which die on their
own, or make sure the website has a method to remove the item once sold.
