Hasn't happened yet, but I'm still hopeful. A Gar Wood would be even better, but only if I win the lottery.Taken For Grantedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06763027485732267570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5233868466116271701.post-9358169202609271332013-09-08T09:56:07.067-04:002013-09-08T09:56:07.067-04:00Yes, I've been to Lake Placid.

The wooden ones are really beautiful and seem more suited to sailing on lakes than out on the ocean. Your nephew must be a talented man to be able to restore these boats. Thanks for visiting my blog.

Have you ever been to Lake Placid, NY? They are quite popular there. My nephew just restored an old, somewhat rare, but not wooden, Chris Craft and then he sold it for quite a profit. He is the only person I know who makes money with boating. He buys them cheap, fixes them up, uses them, then sells them.Suburban Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16135537886717771317noreply@blogger.com
