Looking For MY Orange 22' Nautica Widebody 350 5.7 Inboard Boat

I am desperate to find my old 1998 Nautica Boat. I ripped the original diesel out and put in a 5.7L 350 MAG Gas engine in it with a Bravo 1 drive. The boat is all orange gellcoat and orange tubes and has dive rescue on it along with marine rescue. The center console is all black and orange. I sold the boat to someone when i was having hard times and new to being a dad and husband. I told the guy i sold the boat to, If he ever decided to sell it to please call me. He listed it on ebay and I have never seen the boat again. I would do anything to find out who has the boat and if they would be willing to sell it. I posted a link below to a picture of my old boat. If anyone knows where it is even if it's not for sale I would be interested in the location. This is one of those things in life that i regret doing, any information please e-mail me at wiidcats@aol.com Link to the picture is below on my myspace page. Again please any info on it would be appricated. I miss her a lot.

Ah my friend, I feel your pain. I once had to choose between my boat and my wife... I made the opposite choice you did.

I found it was easier to replace the wife, than the boat!

Good luck with your search... it's a distinctive looking boat!

Now if it were a question of keeping an anchor vs. keeping a wife, that would be more of an apples to apples comparison.

Weird. It has travelled all the way from Florida to Courtney, and the photo the seller put up in the craigslist ad is the exact same photo that ejohnny took of his boat back in the day when he owned it. Same foliage in the background & everything.

Unless.... the whole post is a fraud using an old photo found online.

Oh ya... She mocks me relentlessly about it. Did you see my old thread about the http://rib.net/forum/showthread.php?...&highlight=tug

She was an active participant in that one...

Sorry for the hijack!
