BEWARE...this company is likely a scam.
They recently changed their name (may 2012) from Platinum Image Motorsports / Blue Water Recreation.
Managers/Partners: Charles (Chuck) Gebell, Karen Gebell, Chad Toru
Sales Rep: Matt Martinez
Parent company: Blue Water Partnership, owner is David Goodman

Complaints/ Allegations of fraud are all over the internet. The basic scam is this...they act as a broker, matching buyers & sellers of Auto, Boat, RVs. They collect payments from the buyer and pocket most/all of the money, rather than passing it on to the seller/ lien holder. They may also be operating as a theft ring. As the seller, when I pressed them on being six months behind in payments, my car conveniently was stolen from the buyer.

More info on Charles Gebell, a lawsuit that he lost when he ran Internatonal Marine & Auto Investments, inc.
http://dockets.justia.com/docket/michigan/miedce/2:2010cv10600/246360/
Charles Gebell now runs Equitable Monetary Instruments (EMI), the financial arm to David Goodman's companies Blue Water Partnership / Blue Water Recreation, and likely the new name "EZ2Buyllc"

Being a former client screwed by Bluewater partnership, EMI, Skippy, Chad, Karen, etc, just beware of these people. They lie, and steal your money. When you call them and leave messages THEY never return your calls after they make the deal.When you have problems receiving your payment, they tell you its not our problem, call EMI, which is run by Karen, and is in the same building as Bluewater. In conclusion, I know they make it sound nice to get you out of a car, boat, etc.but if they ask for money, RUN!
