Re: How Old's Your Ride?
Mine's another good old
boat
, a Chance 30-30 built by
Allied
in 1970, which I've owned since 1992... She works fine for me...
I'm getting too old to quickly do the math...

Old
boats
are like grandad's axe. Eventually everything old is new again while the
price
keeps heading south.

"On Ice" would be more like it. I'm dying to get her under sail, but I've got a long row to hoe before I get there...
