Houseboat

I don't remember if I blogged about it before, but we used to have a houseboat. A 33 foot Kingscraft.  Unfortunately, we had to let it go, at a fraction of what out was worth, due to some financial issues.

Well, in about 3 years our finances should be cleared up, and we're considering another boat.  If I had their phone number, I'd be tempted to contact the people that bought the old boat and see if they wanted to sell it back.

At any easy, I've been looking on the internet at boat stuff (call it market research).  I've made several discoveries:

Most of the forums and groups that I visited when we were looking for the last boat have been taken over by spam. There were lots of activity on them in the past, but now they're worthless. Did everyone give up on forums? Is there a new medium I don't know about? I started a new forum, but my history with forums doesn't make me confident.

While there are some gems out there, there is a lot of crap on the market. I'm seeing a lot of boats on Ebay that aren't getting a single bid. Out may be a good time to but. To bad I don't have the money yet.
