Believe it or not, this really is (tangentially) related to
sailing/cruising, etc...

Most of you know that we've been the beneficiaries of many good
outcomes as
a result of our wreck. We like to think that it's not only the "what
goes
around" and "paying it forward" which we practice, but the immense
good will
of fellow cruisers, live-aboards, wannabees, friends and family which
generated those good things..

With that long winded introduction out of the way, we're nearly
finished in
our rehab and trialling of all that's needed for us to leave. When we
leave,
we'll no longer need the '93 4WD GMC Suburban given to us by a fellow
cruiser who no longer needed it. It won't win any prizes, but it's
stout
and starts and runs reliably.

We'd like to pass it along to someone in similar circumstance -
finding
themselves in short-term need of a vehicle suited to hauling stuff,
and
willing to pass it along to another needy and/or deserving sudden
pedestrian, preferably a cruiser finding themselves in a
strange/unaccustomed location, when they're finished with it.

We expect to have left sometime shortly after July 4th, or even,
perhaps,
earlier, if my first ever (dammit!) set of spectacles arrive before
then.
We'll be in Salt Creek Marina, in St. Petersburg FL until our
departure, and
if it should happen that we can't directly get together with our
beneficiary,
we could leave the signed title and keys in the office for later
pickup.

At the risk of looking like the title of this post (where very old
people
will recall they gave away a washing machine on the show), we're
looking for
a deserving recipient. If none surface from this and other cruising
related
exposure I'm doing simultaneously, we have a local charity which will
direct
it effectively - just not to a cruiser :{))

So, if you happen to be that person, or can recommend someone, please
write
me directly at . You could also call
770-887-0397 if
you'd rather.
