Today was the day to put away the Christmas decorations, and it was also the day to move out the boxes of equipment that go with this boat to make space. My dad had purchased most everything to get the boat completed. Included here are the seats, mahogany handrails, mahogany light mast, instruments, radio and antenna, steering wheel and cables, throttle and cable, fuel tank, portholes and covers, stainless furniture such as cleats and bollard, plexi for the front windscreens, and buckets full of electrical and other hardware. he even got the Porta Potti and toilet paper to go with it! I also have the cushions for the berth, some other fiberglass, and side rails for the trailer that I don't have pictures of. In the boat are the other hatches that I don't believe I included in the pictures before.

Here's most of what would be included with the boat:

Man somebody needs to take you up on this offer. Just a tad too far away for me to even think of it :cry:

In a few weeks this is going to go up on Craigslist for the unwashed masses to contemplate. My hope is that someone here who appreciates what this is and the work that has already been done will want to make the journey to CA for this gem.

Hi Yoda Jr.

I am sorry for all this. I really hope Yoda's boat finds a good owner and home.

Yoda Jr,
I wonder what it would cost to ship the boat to Michigan, I once had a truck I bought in Cal and shipped it to mich, if I remember right it was around $800.00, I would pay if that where the case, I'm sure I could bring Yoda's HMD18 back to life!

Just pondering.

Now that everyone has extra time on their hands and the weather is becoming perfect for fairing, I thought I'd bump this back up to the top...

This boat is still waiting for someone to come pick it up and make it perfect! Are you the one? :wink:
