Sorry to hear, one thing it was fairly quick so you guys can get on with things.....maybe will stop by if we see someone there, as we are always at the boat at one time or another during the day and on Sat probably have to park right there anyway.
The above is strictly my opinion always based on years of doing...remember to support local business , it pays back.

Thanks for the good thoughts everyone. We'll clean her out in the morning and see where we go from there.

Sorry to hear that. The good thing is no one was injured. Now the hunt for a replacement begins. Good luck, hope you find another that you like as much.

And the saga continues. We're off to see a 1985 3207/8? tomorrow. Supposedly in excellent condition with nothing needed. We'll see what it looks like and if a possible, off course the survey. But first, a Monday morning roadtrip.

Good luck. Glad to see that you are getting right back on the horse. A 3207, from what I have seen has a similar layout but of course is a bigger boat. More room is a good thing. I sincerely hope it is all it is supposed to be and you are back out on the waters soon. Still a lot of season left. Good Luck.

That's good news. It would be great if you can still get a decent season this year in spite of the setback. Is she close to home port or in the Bay?

And so it goes, we handed over the keys to ours yesterday after the sea trial, and the whole time going thru the trial I was hoping the guy would back out, sad day on the whole....anyway onward to the next one, seems to me thats half the fun.Good luck with your search....

PS your old boat is still in the parking lot. :beergood: :beergood: :beergood:
