Few things in the world measure up to the thrill and satisfaction of boating in a boat that you built.

:( I felt that way when i found a boat junk yard in my area. the guy was at least trying to save parts for people but the local city told him he had to get rid of all of them. the sad part is that he was located out side of town and where there was not much other than open grass lands. :evil:

What a once grand boat. A real shame. I've seen a lot of antique and classic planes go this route, too.

Roberta :(

I just was at a guys place to get a part for my remote control. He has a yard full of old motor parts. I saw a few old mercs amongst the stuff.
