----Prior good guy owner (Julian) was living in Reno and boating on Tahoe. He took a job that I think will be very labor intensive in Alberta and felt that he wouldn't be able to take care of SC for several years. After an overseas sale failed we sort of came to the conclusion that enough was enough. There was, at least, talk that the European buyer was going to put a different deck on the boat which, in my estimation, would have been a travesty. That wont happen on our watch!!!!!........Bill S

So glad to see you will be bringing her back home.

Can't wait to see it. Should be a lot of fun.

Take care Chris

She is looking good I her new home, the sale still brings a a tear to my eye, but I know she is in great hands.

I guess I will have to change my avatar!

Have fun,
Julian

----Julian,,,Dont change a thing! You stepped up to the plate when you bought SC and kept it in good shape back when there were doubts about its condition (unfounded). You deserve the Avatar! That pic is one of the best out there. And,,,Mario,,,Funny, I was going to go down to the races and spectate, but the Selfridge AFB Air Show is this weekend and I cant miss that. Its awesome!!!........Bill S
