Default End of an era...

I'm selling Flying Tadpole II, needs a younger and faster driver. She's
been up north at Pt Augusta for some years and the sun's had a bite, I
don't have time to fully restore her, Lady Kate is jealously demanding
what little time is left between deserts, renovating, trying to move,
music, wheels of industry etc. So I trust some enthusiastic local will
buy her (for a fleabite), polish her back up, and proceed to make the
bermuda plastics enraged and second on the big lake races once again!

BUT...the domain name doesn't go with the boat, nor the website, nor the
FT internet tag, nor the music production company, nor the band etc etc,
so be warned.

sale is at duck flat wooden boats www.duckflatwoodenboats.com
For those who can't use a domain link, the actual website front page is
at http://www.ace.net.au/schooner

I don't think that boat looks good. The sails and masts are too short and squatty.
Something's out of proportion..... You'll probably have a hard time selling it.

Cheers,
