38 foot wooden cabin cruiser built in 1931 Beam at widest is 9'6"
Lovingly maintained . Last haul out September 2013, Last survey 2011.
Same owner for 13 years. Lots of Smith epoxy !
Interior has much period charm and modern convenience-- it has been my home for past 2 years--
prior a fun project and part time home.
I need to let go of my home by end of March 2015 the latest-- while I would love some cash for her,
( as you can imagine I have invested a lot in her!),
I would be willing to let her go for free for a good home/owner.
