    Hi David:
    Just wanted to let you know that my Kirby 36 War Hog has sold. It took awhile, but in the end I finally hit the magic price. Had 3 offers. Just goes to show what I was reluctant to face...it doesn’t matter how much $$ is in the boat or how much I think it is worth, anything is only worth as much as someone is willing to pay for it!
    Thanks for all your help selling the boat over the past year or 2. I had my boat listed on many internet sites. Your site is the only one that consistently gave me inquiries from potential buyers. In fact, I’d say about 98% of my inquiries over the years came from your site. All 3 of the people that made offers saw it at sailingtexas.
    Take care.
