Thanks Pep, Its not too hard as she is made from hot moulded and resin bonded mahogany with a two pack paint. So maintenance for a timber boat is fairly low. And I have an all over cover to protect the varnish and teak from the UV......

Hey Dan, what's up with your camera?

That boat is gold colored, (at least it was last time I saw it).

Awesome boats! I wish I was on the water today. It is so hot in NYC today and would be a perfect day to be on a boat.

Going through my files looking for my boat pictures.

Here's another toy I just had to have (because of the name) when they first came out.
