Forrest, this is hilarious--especially the part about the dog and bringing your own hot sauce! Incredibly funny!
Sounds like maybe it's the same Nigerian posing as
a Canadian. I mean, a 32 ft sailboat in Whitehorse. Obviously, the guy has never been in this hemisphere.

Ok we have spent the day exchanging emails and we are almost ready to do the deal. I just need a survey and a few other things. He has asked me to go to a third party site which looks really legit. I just haven't had time to put my banking info in yet. Maybe tomorrow.
As it stands now, i am waiting for him to send acopy of the survey he says he has.
Tomorrow I am going to suggest that my Uncle who drives a transport truck might be in the area and he can drop by to inspect the boat.
I have asked for his phone number but he seems to be missing that.
In a couple of days, when i am done with him I will share his email address in case 1,2 or a lot of you want to email him as well to see if he has any other boats. But I am going to make sure he has my money first so no one else can take this one.

.Baarquito, oh, enjoy. By all means. Actually I
don't want to know about this boat. I want YOUR address so that I can steer you toward some other good deals.

He has my name and address now. False of course, and address 326 Retnuh ....see what I did there? He has sent me a link to an invoice so that we can continue with the business. Now I am afraid to click on the link..... I will ask him for a PDF copy. He still hasn't sent the serial number or survey.
On another note. We are excited as we are going to do final inspection on the 1992 Hunter Legend 35.5 that we are purchasing...For real! I have actually met the guy, shook his hand and swapped sailing stories with him over lunch. We viewed the boat in a snow storm a few weeks ago so tomorrow I meet the surveyor to do a final inspection and hopefully close the deal. Any advice???

Barquito, do keep us posted on the Whitehorse saga. BTW

To keep you updated. John Crawley has agreed to a new price of $16.500, down from $21,000. for the 2002 Hunter 326. I have told him it is all the money I have in the world.
He has also agreed to meet me at the airport in Yellowknife and put me up in a hotel. He asked his wife and she is okay with it.
