a bit off topic, but i'll ask anyways...do folks ever "chase hurricane
boats" with, say a certain amount of "cash" to buy damaged boats "on
the spot" from, say insurance agents @ the "sceen"....??

anyone have stories about scooping up a nice deal on sailboats doing
this?





It sounds like good
advice to count on at least rebuilding the engine, if not repowering
(and don't forget rewiring), any boat that's been sunk. IMHO most of the
bids on hurricane-damaged boats seem optimistic (to put it politely).
