Hi Dave - Just passing on what was told to me. Evidently, although the hull was "re-fastened" ( I don't know if that was complete or just where needed) a few years ago, there is at least some of the plywood foredeck which must be replaced. This is all second-hand info - I have not seen her in several years. I'm sure a looksee by someone like yourself prior to a survey would tell most of this tale. Best, John > G'day John, nest to nothing?? Any idea of how you'd frame that statement? >> We learned yesterday that poor old Passagemaker was moved on Monday from the now-defunct CrewsInn Boatyard (aka Caribbean YachtWorks) across Chaguaramas bay to Power Boats where she was hauled and put up on the hard. The story we got from friends who stayed at the same rooming house with the "movers" who came down from FL was that she may now be available for next to nothing. I think you have his contact info. Any potential wannabe owners will be happy to know that Passagemaker's huge Instruction manual contains step-by-step directions for every single conceivable operation! I have no interest in the sale of this boat. Regards, John "Seahorse" **************Biggest Grammy Award surprises of all time on AOL Music.
