When I got her and pics from the fixing her up and taking her 250 miles down the east coast to NC. They are in reverse order from how I'd prefer, but I don't know how to fix it lol.

Beautiful boat! I think we'd all love to hear more about your trip down the coast. Congratulations on getting her home.

I don't know if it's in poor taste to post a link to where I've already shared the story with a bunch of pics in here, but here's the full story.

The above link is my epic adventure of buying a 50 year old sailboat, not realizing just how far by water it could be when you buy within a 100 mile radius as the crow flies, and how I took a boat I finally heard run for 20 minutes, hadn't been in water in 5 years, and took it 250 miles home.
