Pick it up Monday,. 1971 Whaler Cohasset. Almost perfect condition, previous owner did a complete restoration. Low hours Honda
http://www.bancersmarine.com/boats.html
On this website. I traded the 1998 Trophy on the same site and actually received cash back.
Needs a few things, going to upgrade to LED lights, install a kicker and re-do the wood finish, maybe put down some non-skid in the bow, VHF radio and GPS, change the plastic bimini parts for stainless, all minor stuff.
I should have it down to fish with in about 2 weeks.  |

So, would the infamous 'Buddy Love' be moored (a.k.a. parked) in the Castle Park subdivision? I have a sneaking suspicion that I see this mysterious reincarnation of a notorious pirate vessel on just about a daily basis......  |

Like any good ghost ship, the S.S. Buddy Love is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma.  |
