This list is copied directly from the Snipe Bulletin and has been augmented with a few other listings that were sent directly to us. Read the Article "Buying a Used Snipe" by Mike McLaughlin if you need more basic information on used Snipes. This list will be updated on a monthly basis. Previous months of this list will not be corrected if boats are sold, as I do not have knowledge of their sale. Do not assume that a boat has been sold if it doesn't appear in subsequent listings! If you are interested in a boat from past listings, give the number a call, and check it out.
