Thank you all for the enthusiastic advice and participation. The silver lining in all the disappointment was joining this forum!
Sorry this happened MIMI, just seems awfully unethical to me !! Going to Fla myself looking at boats this month so I made a note of that broker and brokerage to steer clear of.
