How about some nice nylon docking lines? I can eyesplice them if you like. Nice fenders...a Rev 4 stainless prop? A black box radio with no microphone...or antenna...Garmin 798 combo GPS and dual freq. depth sounder (no antenna)??

Aluminum Continental trailer, rarely used. In fact, used exactly one time too little....

We got a call that our t-top had been dragged up out of the channel. We went down and managed to tie it to the top of the Land Rover. Not sure what we can do with it, but it seemed wrong to just leave it there. Maybe the light works. Would be nice if the GPS antenna survived..

So now we can add that to the list of junk slowly growing in the yard.

hurricane Hanna....the pain that just keeps on giving.

It IS a safari truck. And we just had a really tense time driving it through town, with that thing lashed to the top of it using the lacing cord that formerly held the canvas on the frame. Lots of low hanging power lines...high pucker factor.

Looks good there Gringo. Get those spreader lights working to help out with the night driving so you can see those scorpions as they cross the road. has a nice spot to set the kayak.

Now I am worrying that someone will call us and say they've found the seat/leaning post. And we will have to go get that. And it will be smashed to shit, also. This place is turning into an aluminum scrap heap.

Sell the Aluminum and melt the plastic off the wires and sell the copper and put towards a new boat

Sell the aluminum? Sell the copper?

Nobody here buys aluminum or copper. There is no recycling in this country.

I would have to ship it to Miami. Kinda screws the old profit margin big time.
