    Winter holiday

    a late October day starts up engines steering out of the harbor daily, and take up her very first thoughts but it will probably be fine

    second season

    She is in a boat house, I suspect that the port engine is not ok as I lifted out them and sent them to a diesel expert, but the repair would cost $ 22,000 I decided to do all the work I bought all the parts on ebay tough job but there were no alternatives.in the meantime is time to isolate the cabin and all wood to fix

    Wow

    Been there done that.... if I were you I woud design a double bed sideways like I did... get rid of closets added so much more plus seat. If you sacrifice forward closets you get much biigger bow adn if you cold mold bow shape you get much bigger bow.. look at Homer photos to see this. You have the same hatch I do Offshore Bowman.. that is a $1200 hatch!

    Mask sure you insualate the bow ceiling and sides this time.. Roamaer did not do it. If you do it will stay much cooling in summer and warmer in Fall.
    3M Thinsulate is best product for this as it will not mildew and works very well.

    Closer and closer to the riddle answer

    Hello Homer
    it is a bit difficult and interpret the hand written delivery note, but she is sold to Seaway Marine
    Peoria Illinois 5/9/66 had the original 427 engine and I also got the whole accessory list, and I got even more price lists from 1965 1969 for all Chris Craft roamers
    Now I hope that someone sees this email and can get me more info.
