Yup.... I'll do it... but I have to reapply for my US VISA stamp so I can
enter your country. That will take at least 4 months.


Thanks! I'm sure it will be at least for months before anything is ready
anyway.

The boat's name is "Octopus"


Maybe I should change the name to "Octopussy" to give it more of a James
Bond theme? LOL!


The owner just repowered it with a Yanmar 2GM. The only calamity being he
applied paint to the topsides and cabins with a brush. It looks terrible.
Other than that the vessel seems equipped for living aboard...


What about radios and nav equipment? Anything seriously wrong with the
interior?

I have the photos of it on my hard drive if you care to see them. I

believe
he's asking around 27K. Probably because of the painted topsides.


I thought it was 25K last I looked, but it's been a while...

I've seen a few pics, I will look up the link and send it to you e-mail and
maybe you could let me know if they are the same ones you have on your hard
drive.

What a
terrible thing to do to a fine vessel. The paint will have to be
professionally removed and the fiberglass restored to regain it's value.


Is it possible that I could do some of the sanding? What would a reasonable
price be for this job if I hired a professional to do the work?

Nonono! Can't you recognise a fair warning when you see one?

Now that you mention it...but would you really want me to "think" before
posting? Where's the fodder in that? hehee

It would seem that most people do try to think before posting, so
perhaps that's why the end result is often so entertaining. And
the fodder? Being consumed by the mudder, one suspects.

In Oz slang, "pro" has had multiple meanings, most unfortunate...
