Getting ready

[rb437]

A few more pics... The bolsters installed, the cabin painted, the wood under the seats redone, and the boat in her slip, and lunch on the grill.

I think Oz just got another distaste for bar-b-que after looking at those pics.

You could be right about that. Then again Ozzie could be riding around in a V21 wishing he had taken that chance when the opportunity was there. Either way, if my memory serves me, you were instrumental in hooking Ozzie, and eventually me, with this boat. Thanks for that and all the free advice that you have given to me and everyone here. I have been trying to decide on a name for the boat. Looking at the history of this boat on this forum and the collection of parts from different owners and forum members, I feel a bit like the boat I have is the result of a collective effort of many members here. An assembly of "Spareparts" if you will. So if you don't mind sharing the name, I might go with that as a name for the boat. The next spare part to be added will be the bow rail I'm going to pick up from Willy this weekend.

"Spareparts North" and "Spareparts South"...sounds appropriate to me...when Parrot had it, he called it "Reelapeelin", so we had North and South for that name as well...and yer right, Rick...your 21 is a compilation of the several owners she's had, up and down the East Coast...I believe it was purchased new in FL, so she's well traveled for sure...hopefully she's found a home for a good long time...you've done a great job w/her...that cuddy gives me a chubby...

Annapolis is on the way to Willy's, so be sure to stop by and take a ride on the 21 on your way Willy's for some of that BBQ he's "fixin" to make.
