Default Gonna sell a boat!

The kids, when presented with the option of taking over the full cost of
storage and getting a boat, have decided they don't want the boat. I can't
blame them. This past summer they've been out only a handful of times. At
$3000/year (roughly) for storage and maintenance, that makes the use of a
boat pretty expensive.

So, the 21' Proline 211, walkaround cuddy, with a Mercruiser 5.7L and
Alpha 1 outdrive will be sold or traded in. The engine has somewhere in
the neighborhood of 500 hours thereon. Not sure exactly, 'cause I've not
used it in the past couple months, although the kids have.

If there's any interest here, let me know!

The marina also sells Key West boats, so the ProLine might get traded in on
one. It's not a Scout, but he Key West is quite similar, with mostly the
same amenities. I'm thinking of this one:

Clicking on the 'Printable Brochure' provides some more pictures with an
overhead shot.

Alas, an open transom isn't even on the list of options.
