Wow! Thats like a once in a lifetime find! AND it even still has the arch and racing hatches still in place. Wish I had the space and knowledge to restore such a beautiful boat. I will always be a HUGE fan of the 38 foot KV...such a timeless design.

How about a bunch of us "go in" together and have it as a club boat? Keep her in Miami.....or I will offer to store her free here in Texas.! LOL!

working on putting myself in a position to do something about this. Not so easy after Christmas lol. I can see myself restoring this boat

You got my vote! I am pulling for you Dave!

This would be "THE PROJECT" for a guy like Glass Dave. I think we should start a contribution fund?

It seems I'll be the one needing contributions.

Anyone know where I can buy a trailer somewhere between Mississippi and Miami?

Did you buy it?

I have a MYCO trailer in Texas I could rent ya.

Yep. I've gotta buy a trailer though. There's NOBODY around here with a trailer that big for when I'd need to move it.

Wondered about that with the fb post last night
Is it a done deal?

Did you buy it? I already heard it was sold to two different people! I hope you get it.....and do a proper resto on it.

Give us the details!! W need a resto thread on Facebook and OSO!

It better be sold considering they've already got my money. Threw it down sight-unseen.

As soon as I get a trailer lined up I'm going to get it. I've got to go to Lakeland (between Tamp and Orlando) for business on Tuesday but I doubt I'll be able to resist running down there just to check it out and take lots of pics plus hopefully be able to find out more about what has really gone on with this boat over the years.

They emailed me a TON of pics already though. Had someone else with an MV-KV offer to send me all the paint codes and some stripe templates so that'll be a big help if it comes through.

I sell RVs so I have paint, interior, and mechanical guys on staff that can do most of the work. Just crossing my fingers that nothing is rotted. I'm assuming something will be, but hope springs eternal. Gotta sell some other toys to finance the resto, but at least it will be inside my shop and out of the weather in the meantime.
