.. Nauset Marine, will give you $500 for your 2006 ORV sticker..
IF, you purchase a new Boston Whaler (The Ultimate ORV, ad says) from them... "We can have you back on the outerbeach this week!"...
Those looking for a "refund", well, this will be the only offer ya get!

It may have been smart about two weeks ago but now they are a little to late

Very True Bob, but, knowing the family at Nauset Marine, I think at this point, it is more of a "Local Political Statement", right now
And if they sell a few boats from it, good for them, I'm more than sure they have the $500 wiggle room

[tattoobob]

It sure is going to get some attention. I may have to stop in just to look

Karl - with the price of a whaler and power, i would have offered at least a grand. They wouldn't have any problem recouping that.

I have a better add for them. $ 1000. for the sticker and a free 30 cal for those pesky seals.

A grand and a 30 caliber, I'm in!
Let the negotiations begin!

I bet ya could beat them down over a grand, on a boat, motor trailer set-up, especially if it was gonna be a cash sale, meybe not, their turnover is tremendous.. like all large ticket sales, prices vary

I still am pretty sure that the print ad was more of a "shot across the bow" of the local powers that be...

Oh, and BTW, I've been told you can keep your sticker, after the 500 credit
