Default Pride of the fleet...? :-)

This vessel has to be the "beauty of the bay"... :-)

Just proves the old cliche... "for every Jane there is a John
somewhere
in this world... and vice versus". Same must be true of boat owners
and
their vessels.

One of the glowing features of this boat is the bicycle storage area on
the fantail.

Cheers

We had a cement junker in about the same condition and just as fair
here once.

Talk about a nightmare neighbor, woke up one morning he was diving and
bringing up money/cash seems him and his girlfriend got in a fight and
she threw all the money they had in the water.. He was suing another
marina over a broken dock board and leg. One night he was drunk and a
car hit him on the road as he staggered back to his boat. He made it to
the boat but died of the injuries. About 2 weeks after he died the
roaches hatched on his boat and the whole boat was covered with
cockroaches, I'm talking about 10's of thousands of roaches hatching
overnight, it was like a horror show and nightmare combined. The boat
was called the Sea-Mint.

Absolutely. The car-salesman version of this wisdom is
'there's a butt for every bucket.'

Hey, don't be cruel. Just because you wouldn't accept it as
a gift (or maybe you would, I darn sure wouldn't myself) is
no reason to mock those less fortunate souls. What would you
think if you sailed into a remote tropical cove & saw this boat?

I would think, there's a lucky couple ( or family) who probably
sailed the world, albeit on a very small budget, and is now
anchored in the same cove I am. I hope I can meet them for rum
and stories.

Or maybe it's somebody who is really really wealthy, but
doesn't believe in spending it on boats. Probably drives a
cheap car, too, like Jax!

But anyway, it would sure make a different impression.

Oh Scotty your a lost case. You have to turn your nose up at people
like this. Take lots of picture with a camera worth more than they are,
while jamming on a stereo that drowns out them out. If you mix with
white trash you will become white trash. If we pulled into a secluded
spot and that boat was there we would have to sail on to the next
harbor. Good lord could you imagine being seen in the same cove.. gives
me the willies just thinking about the danger. Now if the Commodore
protected me and bunked me in his steel stallion, I would feel secure
in any harbor.
