Boat is in Puerto Rico. I think Benny Jr. here on OSO has it...or knows who has it. One of my all time favorites. 1989 24 Scorpion. I talked to Frank a number of times over the years about that boat. He sold it to a guy down there who really let it go. Last time I talked to him, he said he thought about buying it back but it was too far gone...termites. I think the boat was being redone by Benny Jr. or someone. Almost bought it for $2500 for hull only, but didn't know for sure who I was dealing with. It was going to cost me 3-4k to ship to Jacksonville, FL. Great runner!

I here ya...no beat up projects. Looking for a 24 race? What kind of money you looking to spend? Looking for a nice project or turnkey? I see you have quite a nice collection going.
