This thing is sweet! These Sterling 1500's came out of Gone Again. Yep, # 6 dry sumps. The boat was rigged at Fountain and arrived on the west coast last night. She's gonna' see water tomorrow for sea trials and set up.

Yeah well it won't be with me at the helm.... unfortunately. I don't think it's gonna' quite get there but the owner is convinced it will so it should be entertaining at least.

Smart money says it'll cough a lung first. That I DON'T want to see.
