i left a post concerning my sandpiper a week ago and didn't seem to generate much intrest, so let me try again. due to a sudden relocation my '75 Sandpiper, hull # 127 needs a new home. Not wanting to be responsible for a derelict boat spending her final years on a trailer and the guilt that would cause please note the following, if you are anywhere near Northern MI and have a vehicle with a hitch you can be the captain of this fine vessel, today! or you can share in the guilt of the loss of a fine classic. ACT NOW. Happy 4th of July.IP: 4.229.204.69 |

If only this was 45 days ago. I drove halfway to your location to pay $5K for a 'Piper. I wonder if the people at CL would be interested. They are just across from Buffalo NY. Is the boat fixable?IP: 156.34.86.173 |

What am I thinking.. Tom on this board is quite experienced working on his CL 16 and lives in Michigan. Wonder if he'd like to expand his fleet?IP: 156.34.86.173 |

We just bought a 79 Sandpiper. Our friend of ours was also interested in the boat. We didn't know. We emailed him to let him know about your boat.IP: 68.85.143.78 |

DCoon, it may be helpful to give some particulars on your boat, equipment, cost etc. Also look at the following link. There are a couple of guys looking here. You could also post an ad. http://pub.alxnet.com/guestbook?id=1014078 Hope this helps. Eric IP: 130.63.85.93 |

I would love to enhance my fleet. I just got rid of a 1 sheet skiff. Still have 3 boats. Spouse says NO more boats until I get rid of some. I think I am too late for this one. Damn I will be near the bridge in September. If it doesn't go let me know I will take to Florida with me. Tom D.IP: 64.12.117.21 |

dcoon; after seeing your piper today, Robert lives just down the road from me, I cant believe you could not sell her for something. Its not really in bad shape a little elbow greese and I bet she will be like new. Im almost regreting telling him about it but like Tom, my wife said no more till I get rid of some as well. Hope all goes well in the move, have a great summerBob IP: 209.226.179.160 |

elmet3 Yes the boat is gone, My neigbour down the road picked it up. It needs a little TLC but for the drive and tax,s he got a great deal - Under $500. Cnd that include gas, meals, taxes at border ect. Cant believe the boat had to change countries to get an owner.Bob IP: 209.226.179.37 |
