Here's something I ran across tonight. This boat seems to be in better shape than what I started with...and a LOT cheaper too. Hell, the engine is worth several times the current bid!

The interior appointments are particularly interesting......check that wood-burning stove. This old girl's got character. Somebody ought to jump on her. I'd hate to hear that she was parted-out.

Hey, Elco, you need a new project don't you?

She sure looks like she is worthy of restoration. Lets hope a salvager doesn't get her.

Yep, a big bang is about right. This boat was for sale for quite a while. The owner obviously found out it was better to donate.

A looooooottttttttt of work there. A pretty boat tho. Yep, this baby could cost you a mortgage and a marriage.

I like the bidder's questions, it seems that none of them bothered to read the ad.
