That is one god ugly boat. They look nice in photos, but up close and
personal, uu guh lee...

The broker, a wise and older gentleman, knew it the minute we rounded
the corner of the yard and saw the boat on the hard.


You might take a look at one afloat to see how it sits its lines. That
boat has a pretty decent keel, so if you were looking at it hauled out
and blocked you might have been about eye level with the chines.

Not that you would necessarily have liked it if you had viewed it in
proper context and proportion; but a boat hauled out is at a serious
disadvantage- like a Hollywood starlet just before breakfast after a
long, rough night. (As if I'd know......) :-)
