Author	Topic: Your own business
whited unregistered	posted November 05, 2003 12:51 PM Robert or anyone else involved with sailboats..... check out http://www.sailboatsales.com/ Appears owner is ready to sell small sailboat business. Wonder if a person could make a living at it? I retire from CBC Dec. 31 after 32 years service and something like this could be interesting. On the other hand, I'd rather work November-April and keep the summer for sailing and fun.

Eric Member	posted November 06, 2003 05:05 PM Hey guys. Quietwaters is about 30-45 min drive from me. Want me to take him an offer?(with your financial backing;D) I visited there about a month ago. Don he's got a couple of nice Sandpipers for sale! They would be yours for the taking! Must be a tough business in the winter. But I thought if you close down for a month, you could trailer south and sail! Just have to be back for the January boat show! Eric
whited unregistered	posted November 06, 2003 10:39 PM I could trailer the Sandpiper down to the Florida Keys and sail over to the British Virgin Islands to visit my buddy. Sounds like a good plan.

But it still sounds like a great idea! ------------------ Canadian Sailor ;) "Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.
