I'll take the cash in the form of a reduced price and get my own financing (cash only for a boat; if you don't have the cash then you can't afford it). The cost of buying down the interest rate is born in the higher cost for the boat.

For those interested, the Glastron Web site has been updated to show their 2009 boat line up. I was surprised to see the GX line has been replaced. The new line is now the GLS. Not sure if I like the new helm redesign. I will have to see it in pe

Since the AG issued some subpoenas recently the stations seem to be afraid to raise prices above $3.99...that's the price I see everywhere, but we have a definite shortage. The pipeline is an issue which is exacerbated by everyone running around wit

It seems to me that if you made it rich from the mortgage industry and got out before it collapsed, a mega-yacht might be the the best place to hide from the public.

I coach with a guy who used to be a national cross checker for the Angels, wears a world series ring and still works as a player agent. He was asked last night if the Rays have a legit chance, his answer was an immediate yes.

I use the parking block method. They are not fastened down so if you kick them they just slide out of the way and don't trip you. The floor is marked where they go so getting them back in the spot isn't a problem. I have four cars and the boat in the
