Went and looked at an old pals boat. It had a fire 15 years ago and was insurance sold. Its been gutted and sat since then... 8-71Ns, one with 3 hours since a major, Allison M gears. Both run (ran), 20 kw atom smasher (Hercules maybe?) some misc stuff and a nice rope only 32 VDC (?) Ideall windlass. New washer and dryer, props, shafts etc. Yard will probably want the hulk disposed of when done. $5K or best offer... ws     I GET DIBBS ON THIS ONE THO !!! |

That boat weighed about 80K (40 tons) minus all the stuff should leave about 10-15 Klbs. of steel. Cutting and trucking scrap, 2 weeks worth of work, 2 emergency room trips for stitches... It would kill me! Even Ppat said she knows how I hate to see stuff like that go, this time I'm just gonna pass it along... Ive cut up about 10 old BIG boats and it takes its toll on ya!! ws

Is this the one sitting at Doynes. I've got some guys that could do the scrap out,, if you can get us in there then me and you could split a commission or something.
Anyway off to Riverdale, I have to get everything closed up this weekend because they will sit me outside on the 1st.

Hey Chris... lets talk when you have some time OK??? BUT SOON. The owner wants it GAWN, probably due to storage etc...
The owner bought all kinds of high end stuff about 5 years ago for the refit... All new steering, auto pilot, spare props, electric shifters, washer/drier combo etc etc... Theres a few (very few) things Id like off of the boat.
It became another vast project with half vast ideas! LOL I dont need another project, but a cash paying job would be cool!! ws
