After a brief online search, I located a few likely candidates and contacted--or attempted to contact--their owners. The one person I heard back from is the person from whom we ended up buying our boat. |

The Work Ahead Our new boat was in generally fair condition, all things considered, but she needed a total cosmetic restoration, as well as a systems overhaul and some structural work. As I began digging further into things, however, I discovered more and more structural issues, with a series of broken ribs, questionable planking, and related issues. Clearly, doing this job right would require more, not less, work. This, and a combination of other factors, not the least of which was a significant relocation to new property and a house and shop construction project that consumed time and resources--as well as our other boats, work, and whatever--has kept work on the boat to a minimum so far. This is not what we intended, but there you have it. Her time will come. |
