New acquisition (1946) in the yard..but didn't come with tires!
Permalink  

For you boat lovers out there. I just purchased a beautifully restored 1946 Chis Craft !!  She is going to be taken out to Jordan River and set up as an Air B&B. Will be building a gangway and dock/deck area around her. The intention is to have her looking like she is tied to a dock floating in the water. I had this plan 20 years ago when we bought our house and was going to do the same in our back yard as it is forest. Guess I'll find out how much of a hit it is once up and running. Worse case.......Dougie has a new hang out. biggrin

That is a gorgeous boat but a road trip to Manitoba is going to be difficult.

 Think boats are the only thing going down in price. Might be the 5-30 galloons an hour of fuel they burn! Park it at JR for when the tidal wave comes....biggrin

Thats a beauty and a great idea. Keep the hull tight in case of tsunami, flash flooding, etc.

 Actually Bob Denver aka Gilligan passed away in 2005. Ginger is the only surviving  cast member of the show. Wonder how shed look in a bikini at 88?
