			Too many good boats around to do a project.  OK I am the voice of reason here, we are so screwed...   If you take it on just know you will never get your money back. NEVER! So do it for love, not money.

			never never never never add up the cost of anything fun, it sucks the fun right out of it. I started adding up teh cost of my buggy, i started loosing receipts pretty quick so i couldn't count them. I'm screwed with boats, I'm estimating cost of repairs for other peoples boats daily, so i can't hide or deny how much its going to cost me for my own stuff

			I have purposely omitted the money spent on my resto from memory.  I'm doing mine because I want it to be just like I want it and enjoy the accomplishment. I can say, the resto materials aren't that bad (wood, resin, glass) it's all the small things that add up (hardware, thru hulls, wiring...)
