Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Florida

Boat purchase

can you recind a contract on a boat , after signing the documents at 2;30PM on a saturday? I paid for a boat after a sea trail at approximatly 3PM on a Saturday, and the next morning about 10AM my wife and I decided that we really didn't want the boat and had made a hasty decision. The boat dealer wants to charge me 10% of the purchase price to let me out of the deal, or make me take the boat.

can he do this?

Re: Boat purchase

No, you cannot rescind. Buyer's remorse. A deal is a deal, as the saying goes. The fact that the deal was made on a saturday is irrelevanmt. There is no 3 day waiting period. A change of mind is insufficient grounds to void a contractual obligation.
