A client once told me, mentored me, 30 years ago.
He said, “The zeros do not count when doing a deal.” In other words, Keep the client happy and keep his business well; the money will come, regardless how much.
Recently Sold in Rhode Island, ( C&C 37XL ) under $60,000: bought by a young US Marine officer, being re-stationed from San Diego, CA to Tacoma, WA.
We delivered the boat to Newport, measured it, got it hauled, removed gear, loaded onto a trailer and the boat is going cross-country.
Happy client and looking forward to sailing in the great Pacific Northwest.
Military folks are the best. Decisive and “Let’s get it done.” We wish him well and it was a pleasure to serve him.
Now that is a Happy Ending.
