Grab a copy of the tradin post, they usually have listings for auctions in there, also try visiting the middletown auction for what is avaible.
I have a friend who is a licenced auto dealer and he might be willing to go to the dealers only auctions and buy a boat for you for a Fee...i''ll ask him if you want me too.
Called my bud and he told me that there is a repo auction next week on Friday at Desa auto auction in Franklin exit 36, contact links below
and repo auctions are open to the general public http://www.adesa.com/auctionHome.do?auction_pkey=8
thats sweet, i will also pass the info on to my grandfather. if you can please tell your friend to keep me updated and i will let you know if we buy a boat so you can tell him to stop. the one on friday next weekend, do you have to be a dealer to buy or not? it says general public is welcome but i want to be sure before we go all the way there. and also is the starting time in the morning or at night?? i am very interested i checking out the auction.

A public sale is like any other auction. Bidders register before the sale starts (please see our rules of public sale). You must pay a $50.00 annual registration fee and a $400.00 purchase deposit. Bidders are given a bid badge with a number on it. You must have a valid bid badge to purchase a vehicle. You must have a different bid badge for each vehicle you purchase. The doors open at 8:00 AM. You may pick up a list of the vehicles available for sale at the front counter, or see our sale lineup. The vehicles are available for inspection until the sale starts at 9:30 AM. You will not be allowed to test drive any vehicles. If your bid is the high bid, the vehicle may still be sold on an "if" basis. This means we must call the lending institution to see if they will accept your bid. You will be notified within an hour after the sale closes for the day.
If your bid is accepted, you will have until 5:00 on the day following the sale to complete the purchase. If you do not complete the purchase FOR ANY REASON, your deposit will be forfeited.
I was going to suggest calling the sherriff or looking online for repo agencies in the area and calling them and asking where the repo auctions are held. But 2504x4 covered it better.

cool, that web site looks good as well. i am also going to look around more at the end of the season because sometimes people will sell them because they do not want to store them.
