    Could one of my fellow YF members, recommend me a qualified wooden boat (SF) surveyor in the area of St. Petersburg?

    Any help will be highly appreciated!

    With old screws and fasteners.

    You going to bring her home or keep a local FL rig? Can you say what she is yet?

    Will ship her to Curacao, and keep it it little secret till I bought it (or not)...
    I've seen her last week, and altough it's a project, I have the time, skill, resouces (and the money) to make her a 'modern' classic beauty!

    I'd call Henry Pickersgill. If you're looking at the boat that I think you are - there's also one for sale in Maine that is in really nice shape and I'm sure you can steal it. Geography is not as good for you though.
