Buying Her,


The big blue water came from a marina in Callao, Va across from my fathers work place. The history about the boat is that it sat in a covered slip for some 10 odd years. The guy who owned the boat lived on it for a while but went and lived somewhere else for a good two years leaving the boat to just sit.

Eventually, The boats bilge pump failed and it sunk about half way. It did not stay sunk for long. They rose it back the next morning and let it sit for three weeks. When we bought it, We spent two days just cleaning the boat, pulling the trash and bins of rusted junk out of the bilge.

There was mold in the cabinets. And, it was just plain disgusting.

The pictures above are of the boat after it was towed to my fathers work marina.














You can see the waterlines. 
 Because they didn't clean the boat after it sunk, 
Gross stuff started to grow in the stagnant water in the bathroom.
