Re: Restoring the LOST PERL 103'

Well I am into Summer and the Lost Pearl seems to be the yacht to be on around Nashville. All has been going well and the parties just keep getting better each week. No matter how big you build your galley they will fill it up. Once I counted 22 people in the galley. Having the bands is a great asset to the boating, I don't pay them they just love to hand and party with us, or at least with the girls. I kinda have no end of bands that want to come now. (Nashville Music City) I have some parties that have so many people that I have to stay at the dock.

There is a lot of work that goes in each party. Now the food and money. I get about 80-90 percent to chip in 5-20 bucks for every party and they bring most of the all the food. They don't know it but I eat there food all week long until the next party. The trick is having three meetup groups so they think the food I take out of my 48"sub-zero I bought. Most of the time it from the party last week, I was just made to do this. I remember when everyone thought I was off my rocker to do this.

I wish I hadn't seen your photos. Up until now I thought a great boat party was a 6-pack of Coors, some Pop-Tarts, and my "Super Hits of the 70's" CD!

There are a few out there on the west coast because everything coast so much. I think you can for sure do it as long as you have the money and can make it a full-time job.

Man I must have blinked to slow. Your almost done? What a major accomplishment. I might just run up on you on the lake if I can ever get that way. Even when I do we kinda stay docklocked at son-in-laws boat. If your passing Black Jack, blow the horn I would love to see Her in person. Great job man.

Apple quit hosting the web sites and I just haven't changed over yet. I am putting new 1.5 stainless steel hand rails all the way around at this time. I have a lot going on so it is not easy to work on her everyday.
