Major change of course!

Well I've had it with old boats. Takes too long to build a new one ourselves and life's slipping by too fast! So bit the bullet, signed the papers this beauty is all ours!

2006 Camano Trawler Boat For Sale=

Wohoo!!! Now all we need is for the silly ice to melt! Wohoo!

Solid looking boat with nice lines. Just remember to save a little of that ice for your first toast at anchor. Congratulations!

I have owned a Camano 31 for 4 years now, very well made boats! I am sure you will be happy with yours. I have really enjoyed mine but have it up for sale now I want something bigger.
Good Luck!
Steve

Congratulations. Beautiful boat Rick, good luck and enjoy.

So now that you don't need all that vacuum infusion stuff, just send it out to me and I'll take care of it for you.
