As I stated months ago [I think in the Big Game Forum} the boat was originally a Cape May boat and my grandfather was the original owner. I think the boat went through two or three owners since my family sold it in the late 70's before I bought back into the family a few months ago. The next to the last owner had her in Tuckerton.

She looks like she is in great shape. Except for the stray bits of old paint and fairing, it is hard to tell that she'd not brand new.

One heck of a platform to start from. I think you'll be pleased with the result.

I owned the boat for 14 years . I kept it in Waretown for 12 of those years, thats were I bought it in 1994. So most likely you did see her in little Egg. I brougt it down to Tuckerton in 2007. In 2008 I decided to downsize and sold her. Fritz so glad you have her now back in the family were she belongs. This is a awesome boat!!!! Don

Its a shame the guy that bought her from you had to abandon the boat in NC. When I got to see the boat on the hard in Jarrett Bay it was in pretty sad shape. No matter, she will be a show piece when we are done and she will be seen in the canyons once again.

Hi Fritz, I see in one of the pics with the bare hull and the side vents are still on. I built those so they can be removed easly. Their are I believe four 1/4-20 studs that go through the hull sides with nuts under the salon windows. Just so you know. O by the way is that the center rigger I see in the cabin? If it is can I buy it back I could really use it. I have the other matching end that I could use for outriggers for my small boat. That was from a rupp double spreader end. And I still have the other match. Its about 12ft. or so in lenth. I was also wondering about the small Standard Horizion depthfinder Is that still around?

Got to see it

I got to see your rig this weekend.

We were up in Deltaville this past weekend, visting my parents.

Bubbie gave me the grand tour, pretty boat.

You have got alot of work ahead of you, or rather Bubbie does.

Really pretty boat, cant wait to see her finished and in the water.
