My name is Robert, thats my wife Georgia at my side, there in the
picture,for 35 years, and Yes, it's an old picture, one of our favorites. I buy
tired, or, retired, Old Boats and motors. Some of them just need a little
work to get them back into action,while others may need a complete
make-over,either way you save a bundle of money and can enjoy doing it if
you want too. The little Black Beauty in the back ground of the picture
there was a retired Taylor Sprint hull,and was multi-color. Thats a 427
corvette engine from a salvage yard, all used parts. It turned a lot of heads
back then and consistently Shocked the competition with speeds over 100
mph .There's still a lot of life in some of the old boats and enjoyment in
just "fixin up" your own old boat just the way You want it. Some pride in it
too. I enjoy what I do. I buy them as cheap as I can. I sell them as cheap
as I can, as soon as I can. Most of them I sell just like I get them, and pretty
soon too, thats the way I like it. Others I have to clean up some, or, clean
out a lot, before She see,s it. I don't work on them much any more, just
buy and sell them. Nothing I sell comes with a warranty, some of them
don't come with a title or a trailer but they are all just "Cheap Old Boats" ,
well, some of them Are FREE ! just go get them. We are looking
forward to doing some business with you, Thank you for visiting our site...

Hello, my name is Tom, and pictured beside me are my sweety Sara, and my 10
year old son Trenton ,which by the way has already decided he’s going to be a
professional fisherman! I’ve always loved the water as far back as I can
remember, and as I’ve grown older and I hope a little wiser, I’ve come to love it
even more. I guess the old saying is true,“the apple don’t fall far from the tree"
I was raised in Oklahoma, and have lived here for the biggest part of my life.
My parents used to own a small grocery store at #9 Landing on Eufaula Lake,
and I remember seeing all of the boats out the window and wishing they were
mine. Little did I know that in my later years that it would bring me to this
point, owning and operating a boat business of my own..
I feel honored that Robert has given me the opportunity to carry on the business
that he began. I have nothing but the highest respect and admiration for him,
and intend to call on him often for his vast and extensive knowledge of boats in
general. I’m also looking forward to the future growth of this website, to be an
avenue for existing members on the forum to add to their fine collections, as
well as new visitor’s to be able to buy a “cheap old boat” whether it be a Classic
or newer model and fix it up like they want ... It's Cheaper that way ... Tom
