Here's how it works. It costs them more to get rid of the boat than it is
worth. Donate it and get an inflated tax deduction. Tell them you'll take
the boat and some cash to get it operable. Who knows, they may chip in
250-500 bucks. You only get what you negotiate for.

Someone has offered to donate a 1971, with a running 6hp Evinrude to our
program. It's about the right size for what we're looking for. We've been
told that set screw on the tiller arm snapped this past weekend and the
tiller is now at a 45 degree angle to the center of the boat. I don't
think
this would be too difficult to fix, though. At the moment, I don' have any
other details.

Any comments on other problems we should look for specific to this
make/year? I'm going to take a look at it early next week.

Jonathan
