We have done SO much to the boat to get it ready!! We purchased the
boat in 2002 down in Panama. Since then, we have done pretty much a total
refit. There is very little that we haven't replaced, sometimes multiple
times, or restored. We joked that we recycled the hull! Here's what she looks like today....and a few pictures
of where she came from. Lots more pictures are located in the Photos
area.. After a few bucks & a few months, here's what she
looks like as of May 5th 2005 sitting at dock. We are having the boom repainted
for the mizzen currently and will have updated pictures when it's put back on.
