That is a totally awesome boat! Don't scrap that gem. Even doing a little at a time will get it done.

lol @ brewern . Sorry i'm not very good with a computer , but i am making progress . The song was longer than the slide show and my daughter was a huge help with the video production , as i was doing good to take the pictures with her camera ....solo , hahaha ,However , i would definately consider avoiding a scrap yard , persay somoene could give the old vessel the attention it needs ,as i know it has many , many years of fun left in it .

Dang, DLB, that is such a rare gem around here. Please dont bail out on her. You would be doing such a great service to the community to keep her alive. She is an amazing piece of art and craftmanship that it would be a shame to lose her.

Scrap? No way!!!! You prolly only have about 50 bux worth of scrap there. Sell it for double that and let her live another day!

I will second that notion but add that I will bring the cash and take that piece of scrap off your hands with or without the trailer.

... So my daughter lives in Fayetteville N.C. & wants me to relocate , i have minor issue with that , like how do i move all the stuff with in a mini budget . i mean a tee- nee budget , one ton duelly , goosekneck ( packed with household goods ) and the Traveler boat , plus another boat trailer and a 5 x 10 utility trailer . scrap sells for a fair amount right now . Its a long way to go if i am forced to make two round trips . Best i sit still and get my co-ords right , befor i screw it all up lol

You'll make more dough selling than scrapping. Plus it's a lot less work as you don't have to gut the boat.
