Crazy how one can legally steal someone's property because the gubment didn't get their pound of flesh. No, kids. You don't really own it then, do you? Think about that for a while.
How can we follow these boat auctions?? Is there a website? Great video
Any chance you kept contact with $900 Catalina Sailboat guy? I wonder if he found any major issues after purchase?
Stole that Carver.🙄
Really? I heard they were expensive but I don’t know about those.
Those plastic boats don't look very substantial. And why are they all trashed like homeless people lived in them ??
Classic plastic baby! Funny how some of those plastic boats are still floating 40+ years later right! Fiberglass is more durable than people think and they look like that because homeless people were most likely squatting in them after they were abandoned.
I've been canoeing for over 40 years and $10 dollars for each canoe was insane! That first Old Town sells new for around $1,500. I bought mine around 1990 for $800 and sold it in 2010 for $900. Both of those canoes had the seats with cane inserts, which tend to deteriorate quickly. Mine had the nylon web lacing that was still in good shape when I sold it. Of course this auction was down on the coast where everyone prefers kayaks over canoes. Anywhere inland and those canoes would've brought around $300 to $500 each at auction and even more on Craigslist!
Good to know. I might pick one up next time if there are more.
How long did it take you to learn how to sail??
A few days. I went out on mellow days and only used one sail at a time until I was comfortable. My wife and I also took lessons early on.
Boating is more fun with people. Big boat better.
I enjoy solo sailing but your are 100% right, more fun with more people. 🤙🏼
Cool studio, brother. Crazy how the sailboats didn't sell for $400.
Thanks. It’s just my desk in the living room. Yeah that’s just wild they did t sell.
52:00 that was my old dinghy 😂 the Marina took it from us bc we were using the dock rack but didn’t pay the monthly fee, so they snaked it from us. Good to know the homie got it for $65 💸
That’s funny. Sorry you lost your dinghy.
Dammit if that boat is truly worth $100,000 then I could have bought it. $31,000 was maximum bid then I would have bid $32,000 in hopes that could win it then sell it after I buy the big boat, for what it is worth then try to get another boat. Is there a website that people can sign up to bid, for boats at the auction? Unfortunately the auction is somewhat far from where I live. If I somehow end up participating in an auction, and winning a bid then I can travel to the USA, and pay, for it in person, or on a website if this is possible, for me to do.
That would be great but you need to be there in person to bid. I wonder if they’ll ever change it.
@@sailingsole I hope, so. Because I could have been the highest bidder. I am still looking on the internet to find out how I can bid on different size American boats. I know this is possible, for me to bid on American boats on a website, but I cannot find anything like that big boat yet. I am noticing smaller boats that are placed in auction. I think it would be nice if Americans put larger boats, for auction as well.
Never pay for a boat or vehicle if they don't have a clean title for it.
Yep or you’ll be in for a frustrating ride.
😥maaaan you have no idea how bummed i am that i wasn't able to make it.... i was all packed up and ready to go, doing my last couple checks around the house, turning the water and gas to the house off, making sure there was no food that would go bad in the fridge... then on my way out the door i noticed a stack of new mail had been delivered. i opened it and apparently something changed with my disability, and i have a few appointments i have to make over the next couple weeks to get everything set back up properly, and if i miss any of the appointments, especially the one on Monday that i have to do in person, i could lose my health insurance and stuff. if i was there i 100% would have bought that Catalina 25 $400 and no lien??? ya i'm 6'2" and it's short, but i would have just planned to pop the top, glass it in, and make it permanent so it would be tall enough for me to stand in while cooking and doing dishes and stuff. and with a boat that small i could have setup a sculling oar instead of getting an outboard. and i would have bid on a couple of the SUPs and kayaks to use as a temporary dinghy so fucking bummed man
That sucks man. Sorry you couldn’t make it. They said there would be another auction in the fall this year.
@@sailingsole well all my insurance stuff and everything else should be taken care of way before then, so as long as it doesn't line up with a couple of weddings i have already committed to go to, or anything else like that, then i'll be there for sure
The Catalina 25 is a steal!!!
It was pretty nice too. Probably the cleanest of all the boats.
Great Video... Nice finally meeting you and looking forward to a trip to the Island.
Thanks and yeah great to finally meet you too.
why you not buy the catalina ?
Because I have a boat. 👍🏼
You know any auction (wedside)in the north east coast Connecticut area
Sorry I do not. I only know about this one. Good luck! 🤙🏼
call me crazy but as for the Sailboats would interesting to know about Sail inventory on the boat, I know Im weird
I have no idea but if you were here you can rummage through the lockers and see for yourself. Cheers! 🤙🏼
Had granddaughter birthday party and couldn’t go or that 30’ would have been mine, steal at $900.😮 Catalina 25 is a great boat.
I know. I was super surprised it didn’t get any bids. There’s a cult following for those little Catalina 25 Poptops. Strange it didn’t sell. Sad.
Thanks for including everything in the vid…. Gives an armchair shopper an idea of what floaty things are really worth (which is quite encouraging)
Haha yeah if you want a deal go to an auction. 😂🤙🏼
Do you have online auctions? Im in Charleston SC but willing to travel for the right boat at the right $$$
I’m just a spectator that films it. It is in person only.
Good to know about liens.
Yeah I’m surprised this detail hasn’t surfaced sooner but definitely good to know that liens are a factor.
Looks like this could be a good spot to get a dinghy
Yep, or a SUP or kayak. 👍🏼
Hey brother, question here. What video editor do you use on your videos. I see it on your pc screen however I cant identify which it is.
I use Adobe Premiere Pro. Cheers!
Its sad that the State just does not go after the owner of the Tax Lien. 😢
I’m sure they try to collect. The boats are stored for a long time before they are auctioned likely for legal purposes but if the fees and liens are never paid then they are trying to get rid of the boat another way and recoup some money before they have to spend money to haul them out and send them to the landfill. I recently learned there is a state fund for this purpose alone but I don’t know many details.
Way to represent the Catalina 30 with your T-Shirt. Thanks for the video, Andy.
I love my C30 shirt. I want a tee in soft cotton. 🤙🏼
@sailingsole Andy, buy one and leave me a note. I will make special for you.
Great stuff as alway, Andy! Thanks
Thanks James
Some great deals. Cant believe nobody bid on the Catalina 25.
I know! It was in good condition too. Someone could trailer that boat. I bet they would sell it still if someone asked to buy it.
@@sailingsole if i wasnt in Idaho, i would. They are a great little lake boat and ive sailed a few. Plus, with a trailer you can work on them at home.
@@sailingsole I just bought a keel boat trailer. 🤔
Nice
🤙🏼
Watching this from San Clemente Island while I'm drinking my morning coffee.
Rad! Lucky! 🤙🏼
Thanks for this video, Andy!! It was sure great to see Misty in a video again! Good info about those pesky tax liens.
Thanks Mike. I’m trying to get her more involved in the channel but she’s a little shy 😂
900 wow
With a $2580.44 Lien to pay... gonna cost double that to put it right, for not to even worth $2k when its done.
I beg to differ. You can’t get a sailboat that nice for $5k. Of course there are variables that can cost money but he wanted it for his family to use and was willing to fix it up. That’s much better than the landfill but there will certainly be people talking crap about it.
@@sailingsole I don't think your talking crap about it...your just having an opinion..you know like everyone else on a public forum.
Why is this never online.
What do you mean? Have an online auction? Yeah right, people would bid and outbid each other then not pay. It would be a fiasco and wouldn’t work.
I'm curious as to where the impounded boats are docked.
🤔
what is the pier or jetty # where the boats are located? The reason is, I am interested in the Cal 39 Bums Rush. I found a video of the boat being offered for sale in 2015 for $59,500.00@@sailingsole
I assume Mr. America has a semi with a trailer and a yard. Take them apart, salvage/recondition innards...I'd do that business.
Nope. He trucks them up to the High Desert area and salvages them for the lead in the keel as far as I know.
@@sailingsole Must be s*itload of lead to be worth the diesel.
Wow, thank you for showing us how the boat auction works out in California. I've never been to a boat auction before. It's sure surprising how boats that were once loved and taken care of ends up selling for cheap all because people didn't take great care of them an let these boats turn out going bad with damage. Just like termites, they are very bad, they will eat all the wood and only leaving the fiberglass hull behind. Then water damage causes alot of hidden damage and you have to search until you track down how the water is getting into the boat. It would be awesome I'd think to have a boat yard where you can have a decent place to fix them. If i was a younger man I would love to do something like that. Fix them right and give them a new life and sell them to new families who will take care of them like the original owners did. It's good to help others and share the love with everyone.
You’re welcome! It’s pretty entertaining to watch and I just hope that people buy the boats and refit them. Thanks for watching. 🤙🏼
We're on the other side of the marina -I'll keep an eye out next time I'm down there. Lmk when you're heading out to Catalina next.
I’ll probably do a trip or two before but one date you can count on is August 17 at White Cove for @keeldragger palooza
