Yep I'm still around. Just been a bit busy lately. Figured I'd pop in and show a few pics of my new project/toy. Now bear in mind I had the tarp on her because I took the hatch cover off for refinishing. The hatch cover has been put back in place now that I've sanded, cleaned, brightened, and thoroughly oiled it. So here they are:











She's a 23' Coronado and I have the entire interior for her sitting at my apartment. I'm refinishing her a piece at a time. This weekend hopefully I'll be getting out to her to put a few pieces in place and do a bit of cleaning to the inside as well. I got her with a full sail compliment (A main, working jib, and storm jib) for only $450.

 

Thats pretty cool, nice find.

 

didnt you have another boat that needed excessive restoration?

oh thats right, i forgot about the cuss

 

Yep and she's still undergoing the extensive overhauling but it's quite a bit more than originally thought. Besides with gas prices these days I'm not so motivated to do as much with a powerboat.

 

so where exactly do you work that you get all the money for this stuff??

 

All what money? Have you not looked at what I paid for the things I've gotten? LOL Even my Conquest I traded a truck for it and O only paid $300 for the truck.

 

AHHH NO why a sailboat?
