plug OUT] but silly things most of you will have done for year's !!! at 63 and
single,I am ready to start at the "bottom" and
work thru the
mast.it is a 1977year modeland needs a re-build on her ATOMIC -4 engine]gas],might be better to "up-grade" and not mess with it.having owned the boat--now named "the MOKEN",I have found a re-built moter for $3,000.00,'local" oriental,nc 28571.it needs the "head" repaired&replaced,but
parts are on board.the
boat has been used a lot ,the
rigging looks good&serviceable,the
sails are both in 'GOOD" condition,all the cordage will be replaced.some of the
electrical systems will need replacing,all in good time.I got the boat on a whim ,and it appear's next to horse owner's I have just joined a very expencive "HOBBY" group.THANKS in advance [for not throwing things "at the dummy lol later gumby/zenkayaker "enjoy your day's,and,remember your night's" MOVE or DIE "the only EASYDAY,was,YESTERDAY"
