sweet and sour

Post by jaguar496 »

This goes out to those thinking about owning a 26M, slightly used, well outfitted, with the exception of the gas grill. look up under my name: "options for the restless two". the sour is, due to poor health out of pocket costs, I can no longer pay the creditor for the boat. Anyone that has, or can qualify for $26-29.000, should call Keybank, marine div., and ask for the boat by serial number. Keybank will have the boat this week-end. She has 1310 water miles, less that 100hours on the engine, with three years left on the warrantee, which is transferable. she needs a bottom cleaning, hull cleaning and polishing, and a repair to the uv cover for the genoa. my cost was $35,250.00 plus labor of $4250.00. the trailer has approx. 1200 miles travel; needs a new set of lights. she has a ding on the port bow that is 4-5" long, but only took away the blue color. I will ask the driver from Keybank where it will be taken, and then I will report here as to the location. We had great times, we hope one of you can own her. stew

Sorry to hear that.

Hope your life gets better and the boat falls in good hands.

Hi Y'all: SOUR: "THE RESTLESS TWO" is at an auction house in greer, nc; American Auctions. the description indicates approx. $2500 is needed to bring her into Bristol, but I believe they are about $1500 too hi, given the quotes I rcvd here in Oriental. This house is for licensed dealers only, so, if you know of one that visits there, perhaps a deal can be made. SWEET: The ADMIRAL was just given a PET scan(head to toe), and was pronounced FREE of any cancer 8) 8) 8) . we are now trying to recoup and regroup in order to join this group as an owner, sometime in the not too distant future. Thank you for your encouragement and thoughts. Alice and Stew, formally of "THE RESTLESS TWO"

Don't overlook the Ventures or Mac 26's out there or look for the boat in the back yard that they will let you take for free to clear the space.

Alice & Stew
I thought you might like to know that Restless Two is going to a good new home.

My wife and I used to live aboard a C&C 43. That came to an end with that the birth of the first of our 3 children and a reversal of fortunes with the Dot Com bust.

Our children are now of age to learn and be interested in sailing. We bought Restless Two today based on your posts.

Thank you for the heads up and we're happy to read about the good news on the health front.

Richard

PS: We'll take care of her.
