It was a waste. The Lunds were gutted/stripped of anything that could be removed including gauges.
The Polar Crafts were small boats that would fit in the bed of a pickup.
The Dura Craft was a 1648 with a 40 hp with no lower unit - the steering console had been removed and the controls/wheel just laying in the floor. It was about as stripped as it could be with no subfloor.
The motors were just scattered out on the gravel lot - beat up, used and abused - might be good buys for a mechanic, but far too questionable for someone like me.
All the fishing gear was catfishing stuff.
I think the best deal was the scuba gear - I don't know much about it, but I think it pretty dang cheap because only one or two guys bid on it.
The guns were fair - the one I bid on (Winchester Super X2) was decently priced, but the other guy wanted it more than me so he got it. A Benelli Nova sold for about what a new one would bring...that surprised the heck out of me. There just weren't many semi-auto duck guns, so I guess that's why they went a little higher than expected. A decent deer rifle could have been bought cheap, no shortage of those, but I've got a few already.
Yeah, it was kind of a waste, but I enjoyed it. I feel the spring auction is probably a little better based on the results I saw from it. Thanks for letting me know about it.
