Not the chrysler 22 I got but this is an older 30' ? (or bigger)wooden
fixed keel that one of my customers has or her husband was working on
before he died.

If someone here was interested I could get pictures soon and I
believe it can be gotten cheap do to the fact it looks like it would
be hard to move from central NC.

Where in NC? I'm in Charlotte.


I'd bet Oriental. That place seemed like some sort of graveyard for old boats.

I don't believe Oriental is considered *central* NC.

Still, it's a lovely area, with a large community of ex-cruisers (and a
few who are between trips). It seems a quieter version of the
Chesapeake, with less salt.

We were at their dock for a day trying to do some minor work. Almost
had to anchor out to get the work done with the number of sailors
coming by to chew the fat.

Just a casual warning to all the folks on this forum: I'd think long
and hard before doing business with the original poster. His name is
Mario Gavazzi and he operates what I am laughingly going to call a
"business" in Burlington, North Carolina. He has defrauded multiple
people in the air-cooled Volkswagen world and has been banned from
several web sites for fraud.

You can meet him here - this is a clip from a television news
investigation that was done on him. There's actual footage of Mario

Well, you folks are adults and can reach your own conclusions, but I
wanted to give you fair warning. Mario and his wife Sherry have
cheated a large number of very nice people, and I'd hate to see you
all added to the list.

Thanks.

He has left quite an Internet trail hasn't he? It makes you wonder if the
business about sailing the incredible shrinking boat off into the sunset
with no ocean experience whatever is just a shill to built up credibilty to
foist the other one off on someone.

I had a few tornado scares a few years ago sailing through there.

Well, the OP seems to be a rather sleazy fellow who is getting all weird
and coy now about the boat, it's location and even the size. I say we
got here some guy who would be excellent power for a sailboat - a huge
gust of hot air.
