[Rhodes22-list] Herb, quite fooling with that antique, look here

[Herb Parsons]

That boat's been listed before. If they gave it to me, I'd consider taking it home and working on it. I wouldn't pay for it.

I love it when these guys on these hurricane boats say "very little damage", or "just needs some fiberglass work". Scroll down to the pictures that show the inside cabinet area (they about 8 pics up from the bottom). Note that the description said "THE ONLY DAMAGED PART IS THE MAST. THE INTERIOR CABINET IS SHIFTED ALSO" (which is a contradictory statement). Now ask yourself, how much pressure would the storm have had to put on the hull to crush the cabinets that way? How much damage was done to the hull when it happened? How much would YOU trust this boat after you glassed the cabinets back in place?

I wouldn't.

Herb,
       Here is your boat.  All it needs is a new mast.  Look at the size of
this thing.  You could sail round the world.
