I did the right thing, err yeah! If it ever gets rebuilt it will be named 8k because that is what the repairs to my pick-up truck cost from going to get her. I will find a picture. Attachment 6274 This is the picture I have where fire rescue was called out due to my diesel truck fogging the highway. Flip phone so the picture sucks

Hmm...seems I remember something about that boat...best times of my life...sorry she didn't turn out for you...

Got and have had a few. Some are more worth hanging onto than others, but after 35 or so different boats since my first one 29 years ago I've only taken one to the landfill.

Yep took one to the dump watch as they crushed it to pieces and said I would never do that again... Am looking at a few places to put her and start working on her again.. So will be back and forth here to update the progress

My boat was a scratching post for about 15 cows in the middle of a pasture. I worked my butt off and did a entire ground up conversion restoration. Mine sat in that cow pasture for 10 years and is now a beautiful boat!
