This looks like a pretty nice deal for $500.

Thanks, Dave! I read the listing; somebody REALLY needs to make this guy "an offer he can't refuse"! He's looking for "a hunk of junk" to cicumnavigate the world in his sailboat with. So, offer him a decent swap, and maybe a little cash, and he might bite on it!

Great idea - Hey Cliff, offer this guy your slothead plus $100 and I bet he'll jump at it You get yourself a nice Elite plus the knowledge that your slothead is getting an around the world tour on a sailboat. Dave

PS - I'll dress up as a pirate and attack his sailboat. Throw him overboard, sink the boat and make away with the slothead loot. Arggggg.

Jeez!

Some guys'll just go through ANY lengths just to have the excuse to dress up as a pirate!!

Besides, . .

..the only way that THAT baby's getting on a sailboat around the world is when my daughter finishes college, I fake my own death to escape the clutches of my ex-wife's alimony (bloodsucking) lawyer, show up at russelito's door and we finish the boat (repleat with a carved walnut "SlotHead" transom and wooden epaulets on the bow) and take our wandering minstrel show to ports-of-call unreachable by extradition laws and play for local cuisine and indigeonous fermented beverages.

"arrrrgh", indeed.

Gentlemen, please; you are now making ME an offer I can't refuse. BTW, I have access to a green-wing macaw with a real nasty disposition. That should complete the pirate ensemble rather adroitly.

The exceedingly long tails of the macaws tend to become cumbersome when the bird is running from one shoulder to the other in a heated saber fight.

I prefer a more compact bird with a diminutive tail - like a BlueFront Amazon.
