It may take me a while to sail from Bellingham to Florida. You might need some patience.

And a nice funeral pyre to finish it off. Roast marshmallows, tell old sea stories.

That's OK but the sooner you start the sooner you'll get here. One thing I can guarantee you, with 4 boats there's always something to work on here. I guess you've got job security.

No the old man that owned the boat yard took care of it. For nothing. He was a trip. Heard he was a mean old SOB, that was only from people he had to track down for slip or hard fees. Probably days gone by, marinas and boat yards are big business today or condos with slips.

Re: Much of a boat - just for fun
Happy to see the Hunter Cherubini's made the cut! We love our 1980 37C Hunter which we bought two years ago in NC for 20K. The survey came back better than average for her age and she's been a great boat to live aboard too! WE couldn't have asked for better for our budget!

check her out at www.mountainsandseashore.blogspot.com

Caio,
Camile

It's nice to see others enjoying their Cherubini Hunter. Ours has been great too. Nice blog, Camile!
